Hi HN,

  I built Orchestro CLI to solve a problem I kept running into: testing CLI and TUI applications is painful. Existing tools like Expect are arcane, and Playwright doesn't handle terminal
   applications.

  Orchestro brings modern testing to the command line with:

  • YAML-based test scenarios (no scripting required)
  • Parallel execution with 5.25x speedup
  • Intelligent test generation from source code (AST analysis)
  • Snapshot testing for terminal output
  • REST + GraphQL API for integration
  • JUnit XML reports for CI/CD

  Example test:
  ```yaml
  name: Test Git Workflow
  steps:
    - send: "git status"
      expect: "On branch"
    - send: "git log --oneline"
      expect_regex: "^[a-f0-9]{7}"

  The intelligence system is particularly interesting – it can analyze your Python CLI source code and auto-generate test scenarios based on command structure, arguments, and help text.

  We're seeing real-world usage in CI/CD pipelines, and the parallel execution has cut test times from 10 minutes to under 2 minutes for a 50-test suite.

  Open source (MIT), installable via pip, production-ready with 63% test coverage.

  Would love feedback from the HN community!
