Run workflows with Ask AI
Drive multi-step product workflows from a single natural-language instruction using Ask AI on the BrowserStack MCP server.
Use Ask AI to hand over an entire job rather than a single action. Give one instruction from your AI assistant, such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or Cursor, and Ask AI works out which BrowserStack capabilities are needed, runs them in sequence, and reports back with a link to the result.
The individual tools on this MCP server each perform one deterministic action. Ask AI is for requests that span several of them, or that you can’t map to specific tools in advance.
To set up the server, see get started with the BrowserStack MCP server.
To use Ask AI on the MCP server, you need a Test Management, Test Reporting & Analytics, or Accessibility license, depending on the workflow. Contact BrowserStack support to enable a license for your account.
What Ask AI can do
Ask AI supports Test Management, Test Reporting & Analytics, and Accessibility workflows.
Test Management workflows
Ask AI handles the following Test Management workflows:
- Search and filter test cases in natural language.
- Create and manage test cases, runs, plans, folders, and tags.
- Generate reports and dashboards, and interpret what the data means.
- Review how a test case changed over time.
- Enrich or clean up poorly written test cases.
Try the following example prompts:
- Add the tag ‘regression’ to all test cases in the Payments folder and list any that have never been run.
- Find test cases related to payment processing.
- How has this test case evolved over the last three versions?
Test Reporting & Analytics workflows
Ask AI handles the following Test Reporting & Analytics workflows:
- Run root cause analysis on a build or an individual test.
- Assess release readiness, with genuine failures separated from flaky tests and environment noise.
- Find and fix flaky and consistently failing tests, with suggested code changes.
- Build and edit dashboards.
- Apply filters and save reusable views.
- Ask open questions about test quality and trends.
Try the following example prompts:
- Debug this build, group the failures by theme, and tell me whether it’s safe to ship.
- Why did this test fail, and how do I fix it?
- Which tests waste the most CI time?
Accessibility workflows
Ask AI handles the following Accessibility workflows for your websites and apps:
- Run an accessibility scan on a website or app.
- Summarize a report: its score, issue counts, severity mix, and confirmed versus potential issues.
- Prioritize fixes, such as the most critical issues or the single fix that clears the most violations.
- Understand a violation: what it means, why it was flagged on an element, which user groups it affects most, and how to fix it.
- Focus a large report on what matters, by severity, rule, page, or user group.
- Compare two builds to see which issues are new, fixed, or still open.
- Review potential issues in bulk. Mark one potential issue as Issue or Not an issue, and apply the same decision to similar issues on that component.
- Hide issues or components that don’t matter for this report, such as duplicates or issues that don’t apply.
- Create Jira or Azure DevOps tickets, one per issue or many issues collated into a single ticket.
- Fix accessibility issues on a website or app.
Try the following example prompts:
- Summarize my latest report and tell me the one fix that clears the most violations.
- Collate all color contrast violations from this component into a single Jira ticket for my developer.
- Mark all the potential issues of this component as Not an issue.
Ask AI plans and runs multiple steps from a single instruction, and it doesn’t ask for confirmation before each step. Keep the following in mind before you rely on its output:
- It can apply bulk changes in a single pass, such as tagging many test cases at once. Review the actions and the linked records Ask AI returns, especially before bulk or hard-to-reverse updates.
- For a release-readiness call or a go or no-go call, treat the recommendation as a starting point. Verify it against the build evidence before you act on it.
Tool reference
Use these example prompts to interact with Ask AI from your AI assistant. Every prompt calls the same askBrowserStackAI tool, with different input parameters depending on the workflow. You don’t set these parameters yourself. Your AI assistant fills in prompt and either product or context, depending on the workflow, when it calls the tool on your behalf. You can verify the tool call in the MCP server logs.
| Example prompt | Description | Input parameters | Invoked tool |
|---|---|---|---|
| Find all payment test cases in the ‘Shopping App’ project and add the ‘regression’ tag to them | Runs a multi-step Test Management workflow from a single instruction. Ask AI resolves the entities referenced in the prompt, plans the required steps, and executes them in order. Ask AI returns a summary of what it did, and a link to the affected records in Test Management. |
• prompt (required): The instruction in natural language• product (required): test-management |
askBrowserStackAI |
| Debug my latest build, separate genuine failures from flaky ones, and give me a go or no-go call | Runs a multi-step Test Reporting & Analytics workflow. Ask AI pulls the run evidence, performs root cause analysis, classifies failures, and returns a recommendation. Ask AI returns the root cause of each failure, a recommended fix where available, and a release-readiness call. |
• prompt (required): The instruction in natural language• product (required): test-reporting-analytics |
askBrowserStackAI |
| Build me a dashboard showing flaky percentage by team for the last 30 days | Creates or edits a dashboard from a description. Ask AI selects the widgets and filters, names the dashboard, and returns a link to it. Follow-up prompts refine the same dashboard. | • prompt (required): The dashboard description• product (required): test-reporting-analytics |
askBrowserStackAI |
| Summarize my latest accessibility report and tell me which single fix clears the most issues | Answers questions about your website and app accessibility reports. Ask AI summarizes the report, prioritizes fixes, explains violations, and compares builds. Ask AI returns an answer grounded in your accessibility reports. |
• prompt (required): The question in natural language• product (required): accessibility |
askBrowserStackAI |
| Collate all color contrast violations from this component into a single Jira ticket for my developer | Takes action on your accessibility reports, such as bulk reviewing potential issues, hiding issues, creating Jira or Azure DevOps tickets, and rerunning a Website Scanner scan. Ask AI asks for your confirmation before it acts. Ask AI returns what it did, with a link to the ticket or the updated report. |
• prompt (required): The instruction in natural language• product (required): accessibility |
askBrowserStackAI |
| Summarize how the ‘Invalid Login Scenario’ test case has changed over its last three versions | Answers questions about your Test Management or Test Reporting & Analytics data without changing anything. Read-only prompts return an answer grounded in your account data. | • prompt (required): The question in natural language• context (required): URL or ID of the entity your question refers to |
