TestSprite public facts, checked 2026-10-23
	TestSprite	Source
Generated UI tests	Python and Playwright tests. The code can run in your own CI/CD, but its main use is TestSprite's cloud sandbox.	Source
Free plan	$0/month with 150 credits/month, 1 environment and GitHub PR auto-test on 1 repository. The free plan does not list scheduled runs.	Source
Paid plans	Starter is $0 for the first month, then $19/month with 400 credits. Standard is $39/month with 800 credits; Pro is $69/month with 1,600 credits. Enterprise starts at $199/month, with plans from 10 seats.	Source
GitHub export	Generated test code can be pushed to a GitHub repository per project. The integration does not let you change the target branch or file path.	Source
MCP	The @testsprite/testsprite-mcp package runs through npx and supports coding-agent clients including Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code.	Source
Scheduled runs	Test lists or whole projects can run hourly, daily, weekly or monthly. Schedules are not included on every plan.	Source

How the workflows differ

TestSprite compared with Monito
	TestSprite	Monito
Authoring	The agent turns a product specification into a feature map and a reviewable test plan after exploring the live app. Source	Describe the browser journey and expected result in plain English.
Where tests live	Generated Python and Playwright tests run mainly in TestSprite's cloud sandbox. The code can also run in your own CI/CD. Source	Scenarios saved in Monito, with Markdown export. No Playwright code export.
Pricing model	Credits meter test execution. A rerun costs the same as a fresh run; the exact backend per-run cost is not exposed by the API. Source	Pro is $79/month for 700 credits. Test runs and Discovery spend credits; see the offer below.
Triggers	The GitHub App triggers from deployments reported by GitHub. PR triggers post comments; push triggers post commit checks. Blocking a PR until tests pass is optional. Source	Web app, CLI and MCP. Schedules, deploy webhooks and GitHub Actions are available; plan requirements are below.
Maintenance	Auto-Heal repairs UI drift and is not included on every plan. Its docs say it cannot distinguish intentional removal from a regression. Source	You update the scenario when the expected behavior changes. The agent chooses browser actions during each run.

Where TestSprite is the better fit

Choose TestSprite when you want a coding agent to scan your project, normalize a PRD, generate frontend and backend test plans, then generate and execute tests against the running application. Source

Choose TestSprite when generated Python and Playwright tests are useful artifacts for your team, including running them in your own CI/CD. Source

Choose TestSprite when you want to push generated test code to GitHub. Check the fixed branch and file-path behavior against your repository workflow. Source

Where Monito fits

Use Monito when you want to save a web journey and let the hosted runner operate it. You maintain the scenario's expected behavior and review each run's evidence.

The Monito MCP server lets an AI tool run Monito directly: it checks a URL and expectation in a real browser, returns a verdict with evidence, and lets you save the check as a reusable test.

The hosted server at /api/mcp rejects localhost and private-network URLs; use a deployed preview there.

For a deployed app, schedules and deploy hooks can rerun the same scenario. For work on localhost, the CLI or local MCP server opens a per-run tunnel to the hosted browser.

Monito runs desktop Chromium. It does not test native mobile apps, provide Firefox or WebKit runs, or export Playwright code.

Monito pricing

Pro is $79/month for 700 credits, counted on the pricing page as about 600 test runs and 5 Discoveries. A test run is 1 credit and Discovery is 20, so the same 700 credits are 700 test runs if you skip Discovery. Team is $199/month for 1,800 credits (about 1,500 tests and 15 Discoveries). Yearly plans cost ten monthly payments ($790 and $1,990) and grant twelve months of credits upfront. If Monito caused the error, that run is free.

50 free test credits every month. Your balance refills to 50 on the 1st of each month (UTC), counting credits reserved by running tests. Unused credits are not added again; purchased credits are kept. Your signup credits count as the first month. Free includes one daily schedule. Verify your email to receive monthly refills. Any schedule other than that one daily schedule, a deploy webhook, GitHub Actions, and a public status page need Pro.

Published benchmark evidence

On the held-out benchmark measured 2026-10-12, the verdict was right on 58 of 60 runs, with 0 false passes in 30 chances (95% upper bound 9.6%). The held-out set covers 5 open-source apps.

On our own corpus, measured 2026-10-05, the verdict was right on 110 of 111 runs, with 0 false passes in 57 chances (95% upper bound 5.2%), and 88 of 111 verdicts cited the required evidence. Neither set is a promise about your app. The held-out set is a small number of real bugs in open-source apps. The corpus is ours. The method and the limits are on the reliability page.

Questions

How much does TestSprite cost?

Free includes 150 credits/month. Starter is $0 for the first month, then $19/month with 400 credits. Standard is $39/month and Pro is $69/month. These are the published monthly prices; annual prices were not verified. Source

Does TestSprite have an MCP workflow for coding agents?

Yes. Its MCP tools scan the project, generate a standardized PRD and test plans, then generate and execute tests. The bootstrap reference accepts a localPort and a codebase or diff scope. Deployed-URL support was not verified in this review. Source

Where does TestSprite run tests from MCP?

TestSprite documents cloud execution for its MCP workflow. Using a coding-agent client does not mean the browser tests run locally. Source
