Currents
What Currents is
Currents is a dashboard, reporter, and test orchestrator for Playwright-focused teams running tests in continuous integration. It stores results, traces, screenshots, videos, console output, errors, and test history in a shared dashboard. Its orchestration distributes Playwright tests across multiple CI machines, with Currents stating that this can be up to 50% faster than native Playwright sharding. The service detects flaky tests and supports monitoring, alerts, and quarantine actions. Health metrics and reports cover performance, failures, and flakiness, with scheduled delivery. Supported frameworks include Playwright, Cypress, WebdriverIO, Jest, Vitest, Node.js Test Runner, and JUnit-compatible frameworks. CI/CD integrations include GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, AWS CodeBuild, Bitbucket, and NX. Currents offers web, API, and self-hosted deployment. Scale costs $49 a month, billed monthly, with a 14-day trial; no free plan is listed.
