## Four Steps to Ship & Win.

##### Build Your Project

Write code. Build an app, API, tool, or anything you want. Solo or team — no limits.

01

##### Test with TestSprite

Use [TestSprite MCP](/content/solutions/mcp/index.html) to auto-generate test cases. The AI agent handles UI, API, and E2E testing.

02

##### Push to GitHub

Commit your project to a public repository containing a `testsprite_tests/` subfolder, a README, and an optional demo video.

03

##### Submit on Discord

Drop your GitHub link in **#hackathon-submissions** and prepare to WIN!

04

Your Project Structure

```
├── src/
│   └── your-code-here
├── testsprite_tests/ ← AI-generated test cases go here
├── README.md ← Required: explain what you built
└── demo.mp4 ← Bonus: include a demo video
```

## The Guardrails.

Participants must use [TestSprite MCP](/content/solutions/mcp/index.html) tool to generate their test cases. The AI agent must do the test generation — no hand-written tests.

###### Verified Repos

A testsprite_tests/ subfolder must exist in your GitHub repository containing all generated test cases.

###### Public Access

Your GitHub repository must be set to **Public** so judges can access it.

###### Clear Description

A short description or README is strictly mandatory. Explain what you built and why. Make us understand your project in 30 seconds.

###### Visual Proof

Optional

Demo videos included in GitHub are optional but highly encouraged. Projects with a demo will scale the leaderboard and rank higher for awards.

## How to Submit & Winner Contact.

###### Submit via Discord

Post your public GitHub repository link in the [**#hackathon-submissions**](https://discord.com/invite/GXWFjCe4an) channel on Discord. Only submissions posted here count — Twitter or other channels won't be accepted.

###### Deadline: March 15, 11:59 PM PST

All submissions must be posted before the deadline. Late submissions **will not** be reviewed. Make sure your repo is public and your README is complete before submitting.

###### Winners Contacted via Discord DM

All winners will be contacted directly through Discord DM. **Make sure your Discord DMs are open and check your messages constantly** after the submission deadline. We won't chase — if we can't reach you, the prize moves to the next runner-up.
