Open in IDE
When a test fails, you can send the failure context directly to your IDE for AI-assisted debugging. ReSim packages the log summary, relevant log lines, and test identifiers into a prompt and stages it in your IDE's AI chat panel — ready for you to review and submit.
Supported IDEs
| IDE | Requirements |
|---|---|
| VS Code | ReSim VS Code extension v0.1.3+ |
| VS Code | ReSim Cursor extension v0.1.3+ |
Using the feature
- Navigate to a test with an Error status.
- Click the Open in IDE button near the top of the page.
- Select your IDE from the dropdown menu (VS Code / Cursor).
- Your IDE will open with a pre-filled eprompt in the AI chat panel.
- Review the prompt, then submit it to start investigating the failure.
Note
This prompt is staged as a draft — it won't be sent to the AI assistant until you review and submit it.
Troubleshooting
I don't see the "Open in IDE" button
The button only appears on tests in the Error state. If your test has a different status, the button won't be shown. This feature is also enabled on a per-organization basis — contact info@resim.ai if you don't see it on failed tests.
My IDE didn't open
Make sure the most recent ReSim VS Code extension is installed and active in your IDE.
