Feature

VPN for Internal Environments

Test private staging apps, internal APIs, and resources behind your firewall without exposing them publicly.

Supported protocols

OpenVPN and WireGuard are supported for secure access to internal resources.

Per-run isolation

Each test run gets its own dedicated VPN connection to prevent cross-run leakage.

Private resource access

Reach staging environments, internal hostnames, and private APIs when DNS and VPN configuration are set correctly.

When VPN is configured at the project level, Mechasm automatically creates an isolated network namespace, establishes the VPN connection inside it, and routes the browser through that tunnel. Your tests still navigate to internal URLs normally.

Secure access without workflow changes

VPN-backed execution is designed to work automatically once the project-level integration is configured.

Automatic routing

The browser is routed through the VPN-backed connection without requiring special test commands.

Isolated network namespace

Each run establishes the connection inside an isolated network environment for cleaner execution boundaries.

Internal URL support

Navigate to internal staging URLs normally once the VPN and DNS settings are in place.

Operational guardrails

This capability should be described narrowly and truthfully around internal environments and private resources.

No custom test steps

VPN usage is automatic after integration setup rather than something test authors have to script manually.

Safer parallel execution

Connection isolation reduces the risk of one test polluting another during concurrent runs.

Truthful scope

This is for internal environments and private resources, not a blanket claim about arbitrary localhost access.
