What is Cursor?
Cursor's Agent SDK turns custom agents into code projects you can test, then deploy anywhere.
Cursor has grown from an editor into a delivery platform: Projects coordinates cloud agents, Origin hosts repos with a 20+ app marketplace, Rollouts watches deploys, and the Environments API scripts agent sandboxes. On October 20 the Agent SDK went GA. An agent is now a folder with a prompt, typed tools, skills, MCP connections and channels, tested with evals and deployed either to Cursor or to the team's own infrastructure.
What is Testomat.io?
Testomat is pushing test management out of its web app and into the browser under test
Testomat is a test management platform that ships large themed digests every one to two months, each bundling half a dozen features. The last year has been steady accumulation: milestones, a public API v2, an MCP server, defect boards wired to bug trackers, scheduled runs, tree views for plans and runs, and a run of AI helpers for test data, review and analytics. The latest digest is the broadest yet, adding dictation, a browser extension, manual-to-automated progress analytics and an AI-generated project restructure proposal.

Cursor

Cursor's Agent SDK turns custom agents into code projects you can test, then deploy anywhere.
◆ Current state
Cursor has grown from an editor into a delivery platform: Projects coordinates cloud agents, Origin hosts repos with a 20+ app marketplace, Rollouts watches deploys, and the Environments API scripts agent sandboxes. On October 20 the Agent SDK went GA. An agent is now a folder with a prompt, typed tools, skills, MCP connections and channels, tested with evals and deployed either to Cursor or to the team's own infrastructure.
◆ Where it's heading
The last month has been about opening Cursor's agent stack to outside code: partner apps write into Origin, the Environments API exposes sandboxes, and the Agent SDK lets teams build their own bots on the same runtime. Agents that wake on PR, CI, Slack, webhook and cron events push Cursor past the IDE into always-on team automation. Cursor is selling the agent runtime itself, not just its own agents.
◆ Prediction
Expect more starter templates and SDK-built agents to appear in the app marketplace, and tighter links between SDK agents and Projects or Rollouts. Whether self-hosted deploys get the same dashboard tooling as Cursor-hosted ones is not yet clear from the entries.

Testomat is pushing test management out of its web app and into the browser under test
◆ Current state
Testomat is a test management platform that ships large themed digests every one to two months, each bundling half a dozen features. The last year has been steady accumulation: milestones, a public API v2, an MCP server, defect boards wired to bug trackers, scheduled runs, tree views for plans and runs, and a run of AI helpers for test data, review and analytics. The latest digest is the broadest yet, adding dictation, a browser extension, manual-to-automated progress analytics and an AI-generated project restructure proposal.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads dominate. AI keeps being applied to authoring and organisation rather than execution — polishing dictated steps, suggesting test data, proposing a folder structure as a mind map the team must approve rather than an automatic migration. Alongside that, Testomat is moving the manual tester's workspace closer to the application: a side panel that runs tests, records browser actions as reusable steps and attaches console logs and network activity without switching back to the web app. Both threads reduce the typing between having a test in mind and having it recorded.
◆ Prediction
The extension's action recording is the piece most likely to grow next — converting recorded steps into automated tests would close the manual-to-automated loop the new analytics widget currently only measures.
