What is Orchestro CLI?
Built Orchestro CLI because testing CLI/TUI apps with Expect & hacks sucked. Write YAML tests, auto-generate cases from your CLI (AST/Click/argparse), run them in parallel, ship faster. MIT, pip-installable, already running in CI. Kick the tires: https://github.com/jonthemediocre/orchestro-cli
Problem
Developers currently test CLI/TUI apps using Expect & custom hacks, which are error-prone, hard to maintain, and lack scalability.
Solution
A CLI testing tool that lets users write YAML tests, auto-generate test cases (via AST/Click/argparse), and run tests in parallel. Example: automate testing for Python CLI apps in CI/CD pipelines.
Customers
Developers and DevOps engineers building CLI/TUI apps, especially those using Python (AST/Click/argparse) and CI/CD workflows.
Unique Features
YAML-based test definitions, CLI command auto-parsing for test generation, MIT-licensed open-source, and seamless CI integration via pip installation.
User Comments
Simplifies CLI testing workflow
Eliminates manual scripting
Accelerates CI/CD pipelines
Easy YAML configuration
Robust parallel execution
Traction
Open-source GitHub repo (MIT license), pip-installable, actively used in CI environments (exact user count/MRR not disclosed).
Market Size
The global test automation market is projected to reach $98.4 billion by 2030 (Grand View Research).
