The native desktop GUI companion to the CLI — the same Ask AI agent and local test data, in a graphical workspace instead of a terminal.

TestRelic Studio is a native desktop app that pairs with the CLI — the same Ask AI agent and local test data, in a graphical workspace instead of a terminal. It's built on the CLI itself: its chat pane runs tr as a persistent local session, so it honors the same Modes & engines and reuses your CLI login.

Studio needs a Pro plan or above

Studio is the one product the CLI's own plan doesn't cover: it needs a cloud subscription on Pro or above, in either the active or an unexpired trial state. An active 14-day trial unlocks Studio whatever tier it sits on — but when the trial ends, Growth keeps the CLI and loses Studio. See Plans & Billing.

A hand-recreated slice of the real app — click through the workspace tabs (Live Browser, Tests, Runs, Pipelines, Traces) shown here alongside chat. See Workspace for the full tour, including the session sidebar, Settings and Automations, which this compact view leaves out.

Launch it

testrelic studio                # open Studio on the current directory
testrelic studio --path ./repo  # open Studio on a specific repo

Or from the CLI's interactive UI:

❯ /studio

If nothing is installed yet, the first launch fetches and installs Studio for you — see Installation. The install is automatic; the entitlement is not, so sort the plan out first.

Terminal~/code/shop-e2e

$ testrelic studio

# open Studio on the current directory

or, from the CLI's interactive UI

❯ /studio

studio open this repo in the TestRelic Studio desktop app (installs it if needed)

Opening TestRelic Studio (installed app) on this repo…

Opens automatically after a local /init

Running testrelic init (or /init) in Local mode sets up your project, runs the suite once, and then opens Studio on the repo automatically — no extra step needed.

Zero-friction start

No repo yet? Once Studio is entitled, it doesn't make you pick or create one first — it stands up a ready-to-use workspace pointed at a public demo app so you land straight in chat. The demo workspace is a shortcut past repo setup, not past the Pro requirement above.

No folder picker — chat opens on a ready-made workspace Studio creates once and reuses on every launch.

Test demo.playwright.dev/todomvc? I'll use it for the tests I write from now on.

Installation

Get Studio installed and see the --path / --stop command reference.

Planner

Plan what a release promises, build tests from it, run them, prove it, and share the result.

Live Browser

Watch an AI agent drive a real, visible browser — the same one its Playwright MCP controls.

Live Device

One-click Android onboarding — no JDK, no Android Studio — then watch a live, screen-mirrored emulator.

Evals

DeepEval metrics, category health, and pass-rate trends, read straight off your repo's run JSON.

Augur

Embedded evidence reports, one-click demo runs, and in-pane reference approval for text-to-image evals.

Workspace

Code and Cloud views, Tests, test detail, chat and agent runs, Settings, Automations, Run targets, issue detection, and fix & re-run.

Pipelines

Connect CI, view runs and logs, trigger or cancel a run, and publish a starter workflow.

Relationship to the CLI

Studio is a GUI shell around the same tr CLI: chat runs tr -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json as a persistent session, so it shares your login and the same Modes & engines as the terminal. Fix flows can also drive your locally installed claude CLI directly, scoped to the repo.

same login as the terminal

tr -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json

Chat runs as one persistent session behind this pane — the same modes and engines the terminal uses, not a separate copy.
