Is there an AI testing tool that does Playwright plus API and security checks?
Yes. Validate.QA is an AI QA agent that, from a single exploration of your app, produces native Playwright UI tests, Playwright API test chains built from the traffic it observed, console/network assertions, and a security audit over that same captured traffic. You get four kinds of coverage from one run instead of stitching together separate tools.
One run, multiple layers of coverage
Most teams run a UI tool, an API tool, and a security scanner separately, then fight to keep them in sync. Because Validate.QA drives a real browser to explore your app, a single pass captures everything those tools need: the DOM for UI tests, the network traffic for API tests and a security audit, and the console for silent-failure assertions.
What each layer gives you
UI: native @playwright/test .spec.ts with accessibility-first selectors, proven against the live DOM.
API: Playwright request-fixture tests chained from observed traffic — no OpenAPI spec required.
Console & network: assertions that fail the build on uncaught errors, 4xx/5xx, and CORS blocks the screen hides.
Security: an audit of the real captured traffic — auth exposure, missing authorization, leaked data, cookie and transport handling.
Do the API and security checks need separate setup? No. They're derived from the same exploration that writes your UI tests, so there's no second tool to configure or scanner to point at your app.
Is the security check a full penetration test? No. It's an automated audit of the traffic your app produced, covering common high-value issues like auth exposure, missing authorization, and leaked data. It complements a manual pentest rather than replacing one.
