QA teams waste weeks writing and maintaining brittle end-to-end tests that break with every UI change

Software teams spend enormous time writing hardcoded Playwright/Selenium tests with XPath selectors and aria attributes that constantly break, require constant maintenance, and fail to catch real bugs before production. Current testing frameworks force engineers to manually script every interaction and assertion, making test creation tedious and expensive while AI-generated tests reinforce their own assumptions and produce low-quality coverage. As coding agents accelerate development velocity, the gap between code generation speed and test coverage widens, leaving teams shipping untested features.

Launch HN: Momentic (YC W24) – Agents that catch bugs by using your app

Hey HN, we’re Wei-Wei and Jeff. We’re building Momentic, QA agents that autonomously plan, explore, and bug-bash controls and user flows in your web, iOS, Android, and (soon) desktop apps to catch bugs. Here’s a demo: https://youtu.be/BFsM-Se1Fh8 We’re both software engineers that spent our careers ...
