Hey, I'm Benjamin and I'm one of the authors of this (foss) tool. You can check out the GitHub repo here https://github.com/testimio/root-cause

We'd love (developer) feedback on this. This is the first (big'ish) open source tool that Testim makes.

tl;dr

Root Cause is a new open-source Node.js library, to help you visualize and troubleshoot your E2E Puppeteer & Playwright tests.

Check out our interactive demo: https://github.com/testimio/root-cause-interactive-demo/

At Testim.io - we see the automation projects of thousands of companies and run millions of e2e tests weekly. We saw that it's very hard to debug end to end tests and it's a common reason companies abandon e2e tests.

We wrote "Root Cause" for the community in order to use our expertise from Testim to engage and promote puppeteer and playwright and in order to get better community feedback regarding what we see in tests.

Basically - currently most of the industry does manual QA and we wanted to encourage (in our small way) automation.
