Demystifying AI-Driven Test Automation

New

Software vendors and practitioners are using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to create a new wave of test automation tools. Such tools leverage autonomous and intelligent agents to explore, model, reason, and learn about a software product. But how do these testing robots really work? Is this technology any good? And can we really trust it to validate software? Tariq King will introduce you to the world of AI-driven test automation and discuss its benefits, challenges, and limitations. Learn how test bots use AI and ML technologies to mimic human testing activities such as discovering the application, generating test inputs, and verifying expectations. You’ll be able to experience the test bots in action through a hands-on dive into open source AI-driven test automation tools, frameworks, and prototypes. You’ll leave able to define key terms, concepts, and principles around AI and ML; discuss the benefits, challenges, and limitations of AI-driven test automation in practice; and use testing tools, frameworks, and prototypes to support AI-driven test automation. Come peek behind the curtain and discover AI-driven test automation.
