What is the Testim MCP Server?
Connect your Testim project to any AI agent and bring your automated end-to-end testing orchestration directly into your workflow via natural conversation.
What you can do
- Automated AI Tests — Browse your entire test suite, retrieve detailed test steps, and manually trigger specific tests or entire scheduled plans
- Suite & Label Runs — Execute dynamic batches by triggering runs associated with specific labels or grouped within precise test suites
- Execution Diagnostics — Pull pass/fail statuses, trace errors, and review specific execution logs immediately after a deployment
- Branch Management — Check parallel development efforts by listing, creating, and even merging automated test branches without opening the Testim GUI
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Testim Project ID and API Key
- Command your E2E pipelines straight from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible platform
Who is this for?
- QA Engineers — trigger full regression test suites via chat as soon as a new environment is ready
- Frontend Developers — run specific E2E test scripts right inside their editor IDE (like Cursor) without context switching
- Release Managers — rapidly audit the health of test plans and retrieve a specific execution ID to ensure green lights before deploying

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Testim 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 AI agent actually trigger test runs remotely?
Yes! You can ask your agent to list your available tests, pick an ID, and say 'Run this sequence'. Testim's dynamic runner architecture handles the load while your AI returns the execution ID for you to track.
How can it help me troubleshoot a failed test run?
Typically, you'd open the Testim dashboard, navigate to the specific test suite run, and read the logs. With this integration, you just instruct the agent to retrieve results for that specific Execution ID; it will summarize error strings immediately in markdown.
Can I merge test changes through the agent?
Absolutely. Because Testim supports branching, your agent can act as a command terminal. Ask to list branches, select a recently updated feature branch, and say 'Merge branch feature-login into master'.
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.
