What HyperTest is
HyperTest describes itself as an AI test engineer for modern backends. It builds integration tests from actual traffic, runs them in CI, and identifies bugs by comparing feature-branch execution with a baseline. Its SDK records requests, responses, database calls, API interactions, execution order, timing, and data flows. When a pull request opens, baseline traces are replayed against the branch with outbound calls mocked and execution isolated. HyperTest reports 5–10 high-signal findings per pull request, including traces and reproduction steps. Listed use cases include API, database, message queue, microservice, and third-party service integration testing, plus contract testing, service virtualization, and test data management. Setup connects GitHub or GitLab, adds OpenTelemetry instrumentation, and runs baseline traces. Starter is listed as free for up to 50 services and unlimited runs; Enterprise pricing is on request.
