Installation guide
Install Test Companion in your IDE to generate, automate, and fix test cases without leaving your editor.
Test Companion runs as an extension or plugin inside your editor. Choose the install guide that matches your IDE.
Visual Studio Code and forks
If you use Visual Studio Code, Cursor, or VSCodium, follow the VS Code install guide. It covers both the Visual Studio Marketplace install path and the Open VSX install path used by forks.
IntelliJ and other JetBrains IDEs
If you use IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, Rider, RubyMine, PhpStorm, CLion, RustRover, DataGrip, or Android Studio, follow the IntelliJ install guide. All JetBrains-family IDEs share the same plugin marketplace.
What you need
Both guides assume you have:
- A BrowserStack account. Create one if you do not have one.
- A supported version of your IDE. Each child guide states the minimum.
To use AI Skills for Test Companion, enable BrowserStack AI in your account settings. For further details, refer to our comprehensive documentation on activating AI preferences.
