Generate AI-powered functional, API, UI, mobile, security & performance test cases without leaving VS Code — powered by the QAEverest MCP server, available to Copilot Chat and any MCP-compatible agent.
Installation
Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.
Generate AI-powered test cases without leaving your editor. This extension registers the QAEverest MCP server with VS Code's built-in MCP support, so Copilot Chat (or any MCP-aware agent) can call it directly — no terminal, no separate install.
What you get
Seven tools, covering every QAEverest service:
Tool
What it does
generate_testcases
Functional/system test cases from a user story — Gherkin, positive/negative/edge
generate_api_tests
API test cases from a description, OpenAPI/Swagger spec, or Postman collection
Mobile automation scenarios (gestures, device states)
security_scan
Headers, SSL/TLS, and vulnerability checks against a URL
performance_test
Load/stress/spike/soak metrics against a URL
get_usage
Credits remaining, requests this month, enabled services
Ask Copilot Chat things like:
Using qaeverest, generate test cases for: "User can reset their password via emailed OTP, max 3 attempts."
Setup
Install the extension.
Run QAEverest: Set API Key from the Command Palette and paste your API key (Admin → API Management in your QAEverest account). It's stored in VS Code's encrypted secret storage — never written to a settings file.
Open Copilot Chat and start asking for test cases. VS Code will start the QAEverest MCP server automatically on first use.
Self-hosted or enterprise deployment? Set qaeverest.apiUrl in your VS Code settings to your instance's API base URL before step 2.
Credits & limits
Each generation/scan/test call consumes QAEverest credits per your plan; get_usage reports what's left. Async tools (generate_ui_tests, generate_mobile_tests) run as background jobs and may take a few minutes — the chat response arrives once the job completes.
