LambdaTest Buildkite Plugin for TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest)
Getting Started
TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest) is the world’s first full-stack AI Agentic Quality Engineering platform that empowers teams to test intelligently, smarter, and ship faster. Built for scale, it offers a full-stack testing cloud with 10K+ real devices and 3,000+ browsers. With AI-native test management, MCP servers, and agent-based automation, TestMu AI supports Selenium, Appium, Playwright, and all major frameworks.
With TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest), you can integrate the LambdaTest Tunnel directly into your Buildkite pipelines, enabling secure testing of locally hosted or privately accessible applications from the TestMu AI cloud.
- Sign up on TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest).
- Follow the TestMu AI Documentation for the full setup walkthrough.
Prerequisites
- A Buildkite account and agent installed
bash,curl,unzipavailable in your build environment- A TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest) account with your username and access key
Setup
Clone and configure:
git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/lambdatest-buildkite-plugin && cd lambdatest-buildkite-plugin
Set your credentials as environment variables.
macOS / Linux:
export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
Windows:
set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
Add the plugin to your Buildkite pipeline (pipeline.yml):
steps:
- command: 'yarn && yarn LT test'
plugins:
- lambdatest/lambdatest#v1.0.0:
tunnelName: "my_tunnel"
Run tests
The plugin automatically starts the TestMu AI Tunnel before your test command runs and shuts it down after the build step exits. The tunnelName configuration option allows you to use a specific named tunnel (which can be referenced as LT_TUNNEL_NAME in your test scripts).
Run your Buildkite pipeline as normal — the tunnel lifecycle is managed automatically by the plugin hooks.

LambdaTest is Now TestMu AI
On January 12, 2026, LambdaTest evolved to TestMu AI, the world’s first fully autonomous Agentic AI Quality Engineering Platform.
Same team. Same infrastructure. Same customer accounts. All existing LambdaTest logins, scripts, capabilities, and integrations continue to work without change.

How LambdaTest Evolved into TestMu AI
In 2017, we launched LambdaTest with a simple mission: make testing fast, reliable, and accessible. As LambdaTest grew, we expanded into Test Intelligence, Visual Regression Testing, Accessibility Testing, API Testing, and Performance Testing, covering the full depth of the testing lifecycle.
As software development entered the AI era, testing had to evolve, too. We rebuilt the architecture to be AI-native from the ground up, with autonomous agents that plan, author, execute, analyze, and optimize tests while keeping humans in the loop. The platform integrates with your repos, CI, IDEs, and terminals, continuously learning from every code change and development signal.
That evolution earned a new name: TestMu AI, built for an AI-first future of quality engineering. TestMu is not a new name for us. It is the name of our annual community conference, which has brought together 100,000+ quality engineers to discuss how AI would reshape testing, long before that became an industry norm.
What started as a high-performance cloud testing platform has transformed into an AI-native, multi-agent system powering a connected, end-to-end quality layer. That evolution defined a new identity: LambdaTest evolved into TestMu AI, built for an AI-first future of quality engineering.
