socialseed-e2e 0.1.2

Framework E2E para testing de APIs REST con Playwright

🌱 socialseed-e2e

The ultimate E2E testing framework for REST APIs - Built for developers and AI agents

⚡️ NEW v2.0: AI-First design with automatic error prevention, camelCase serialization support, and zero-config setup for Java backends

One-liner: Test your REST APIs with 10x less code using intelligent scaffolding, automatic test discovery, and stateful test chaining. Perfect for both manual testing and AI-generated test suites.

🎯 What is socialseed-e2e?

socialseed-e2e is a service-agnostic End-to-End (E2E) testing framework designed to make API testing effortless, scalable, and maintainable. Built with an hexagonal architecture that decouples the core engine from service logic, it enables both developers and AI agents to write reliable tests with minimal boilerplate.

Key Differentiators

• 🤖 AI-Native Architecture: Structured protocols (IServicePage, ITestModule) designed for automated test generation
• 🧠 .agent Awareness: Automatically generates AI documentation (.agent/) for self-guided test generation by LLMs
• ⚡ 10x Less Code: Stateful test chaining and automatic discovery eliminate boilerplate
• 🧪 Built-in Mocking: Flask-based mock API for testing without external dependencies
• 🔧 Zero Configuration: Sensible defaults with YAML/JSON override support

---

🚀 Quick Start

# Install
pip install socialseed-e2e
playwright install chromium

# Initialize project
e2e init my-api-tests
cd my-api-tests

# Create service and test
e2e new-service users-api
e2e new-test login --service users-api

# Run tests
e2e run

🤖 Workflow with AI Agents

socialseed-e2e is designed to be the first AI-Native Testing Framework. When you initialize a project with e2e init, a .agent/ folder is created with specific instructions for LLMs (Claude, GPT-4, etc.).

How to use it:

1. Initialize: Run e2e init in your project root.
2. Prompt your Agent:

   "Read the documentation in the .agent/ folder to understand the testing framework. Then, scan my API controllers in ../src/controllers/ and generate the corresponding E2E tests following the framework patterns."

3. Execute: Run e2e run to verify the generated tests.

The .agent folder contains:

• AGENT_GUIDE.md: ⭐ START HERE - Complete guide with error prevention patterns, camelCase serialization, and common pitfalls to avoid
• FRAMEWORK_CONTEXT.md: Architecture and core concepts.
• WORKFLOW_GENERATION.md: Step-by-step guide for generating tests.
• EXAMPLE_TEST.md: Gold standard code examples.

🛡️ AI-First Error Prevention (v2.0)

The framework now includes automatic safeguards for AI-generated code:

• ✅ Absolute imports only - No more ImportError from relative imports
• ✅ CamelCase serialization - Automatic Pydantic aliases for Java backends
• ✅ Dependency management - requirements.txt includes email-validator
• ✅ Method naming - do_* prefix prevents attribute/method conflicts
• ✅ Header handling - Manual authentication management (no missing methods)
• ✅ Verification script - Run python verify_installation.py to check setup

Result: AI agents can generate working E2E tests with minimal or no human intervention.
