Use cases
Fixing bugs, addressing UI issues, automating repetitive coding tasks, reducing context-switching for engineers, improving product quality and user experience.
FAQ
Tusk AI is an AI-powered coding agent designed to automate and improve software testing, including unit and integration test generation. It helps engineering teams accelerate code review, bug tracking, and test coverage by generating test cases automatically with full context from the codebase and business logic.
Tusk integrates with repositories such as GitHub and project management tools like Linear and Jira. Once synced, Tusk sets up isolated sandbox environments to self-run the tests it generates, ensuring the tests are valid and pass before suggesting them. Tusk generates new tests upon changes pushed to PR/MR branches, focusing on the modified parts of the code. It runs tests to auto-triage if failures indicate bugs in the code or incorrect tests, producing highly reliable results compared to simple static code analysis tools.
Yes, engineers have full control and can accept or decline individual generated tests. Tusk's configurations are customizable to align with the team’s testing guidelines, like mocking strategies or directories to exclude.
During onboarding, you authorize Tusk access to your repositories and integrations, such as a Linear workspace. Tusk enables selected repositories and sets up the test execution environment, typically within 1-2 days, though complex setups may take longer. Team support helps resolve last-mile issues like environment variables or missing dependencies.
Tusk’s coverage metrics may differ from your full test suite because it focuses on generating new and missed test scenarios relevant to PR changes and business logic, rather than replicating existing tests exactly.
Tusk is SOC 2 Type II certified. It uses multi-tenant architecture ensuring your source code is never exposed to other customers or used to train external models.
Tusk is optimized for Ruby on Rails test generation using frameworks like RSpec and Minitest but also supports other environments under its platform.
Tusk AI offers self-healing tests that maintain test suites automatically on every commit, non-blocking PR checks showing happy path and edge cases coverage, and backfill support via special comments ('UseTusk') to trigger test generation for legacy code.
Tusk targets engineering managers and senior engineers responsible for quality and testing efficiency, providing them with tools to ship fast without compromising code quality.
