Rocketship – Open-source E2E testing that's self-hostable

Hacker News

Hey HN. My name's Matteo and I'm currently a SWE @ Twilio. 1 day at stand-up the question came up if there was an open source solution to something like https://www.runscope.com . I found it super interesting that there was no artillery.io-like YAML/DSL solution out there. So I built one. Why i think this is cool: 1. Companies today run a ton of microservices for event-driven systems. Asserting on the ingress/egress out of a system might not be covered fully by HTTP. I've setup a plugin interface so that I can implement assertions on stuff like file buckets, DBs, queues, etc. in the future. 2. I didn't want to reinvent the wheel. Temporal provides all of the test orchestration, scheduling, persistence, etc. I could ever need. Simply put: A test = A workflow and A step = An activity inside of temporal. 3. In the future your AI agent friend could run these tests against your system to make sure there aren't any regressions. You can try it out the local version here: https://docs.rocketship.sh/quickstart I think there's a ton of potential for this project and I would really appreciate any advice, stars, or better-yet both.
