Have an agent act as QA for your app when you aren't a developer

When users said RoxSkin's onboarding and avatar creation were broken, non-developer founder Tim Grassin had Claude act as QA. It then built a real test setup: a local copy of the database in Docker plus Playwright clicking through sign-up like a user, so bugs got fixed before new features.

Try it yourself

Prompt idea: “Users say [feature] in my app is broken. Act as QA: set up a safe local copy of the app and database, write automated tests that click through [flow] like a real user, and report every bug you find before fixing anything.”
