What is the ContextQA MCP Server?
Connect your ContextQA account to any AI agent and take full control of your context-aware AI testing platform through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project & Suite Management — List bounded test environments and perform structural extraction of GUI test suites across your projects
- AI-Healing Executions — Monitor active test runs and inspect specific AI-healing states, including failing step boundaries and screen captures
- Automated Triggers — Dispatch live testing commands to queue suites against ContextQA test clusters directly from your workspace
- API & Swagger Testing — Enumerate automated HTTP assertions and explicitly verify structural payloads against OpenAPI configurations
- Environment Auditing — List physical runtime URLs and group active contexts to verify testing boundaries across different layers
- Test Case Inspection — Resolve AI root-cause models and validate specific case definitions to identify precise points of failure
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your ContextQA API Key (found in your Dashboard Settings > API Keys)
- Start managing your automated testing from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- QA Engineers — trigger test runs and monitor AI-healing execution results without leaving the chat
- DevOps Teams — audit test suite coverage and monitor pipeline integration statuses in real-time
- Software Developers — verify API test payloads and inspect failed test case boundaries directly from the IDE
- Product Owners — monitor release readiness and audit test execution history using natural language

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings ContextQA data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent help me identify the root cause of a failed test case?
Yes. Use the 'get_case' tool to resolve the AI root-cause model for a specific test. The agent retrieves the definitions and AI insights to confirm exactly why a boundary was breached during execution.
How do I trigger a full test suite run via chat?
Provide the 'project_id' and 'suite_id' to your agent and use the 'trigger_run' mutation. The agent will command the backend to queue the tests against live ContextQA test clusters instantly.
Can I see screen captures of failed test steps through the agent?
The 'get_execution' tool retrieves detailed logs tracking failing step boundaries. Where supported by ContextQA, the agent can surface the associated physical screen capture limits to help you visualize the failure.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
