Browser and web automation agents

Agents that drive browsers and the web—scraping, testing, and product flows outside the repo alone.

This article is AI-assisted and co-authored by Xesca Alabart, co-founder of EasySpecs.

Browser agents extend factories beyond git: they see web apps the way users do—DOM or vision—and automate exploration and validation flows. They often sit beside in-repo harnesses as external scenario runners.

Factory use

Use browser agents for end-to-end checks that are hard to express as unit tests—while keeping scenario vs test discipline so agents cannot weaken holdouts.
