STARWEST 2023 - Industry Technical Presentations

Open AI has taken the tech industry by the storm, and everyone is talking about how the jobs of today will be impacted by GPT-3.5 and now GPT 4.0. With the Microsoft Copilot announcement and the massive GitHub data used to train Copilot - it's evident that GPT will transform the software development life cycle. In this talk, Syed will share the use cases that will change how we test software today using GPT and how Sofy has been using the power of GPT to further amplify it’s no code testing platform.

Join this session to learn the three primary components to intelligent testing. 

Ready to become a Mobile Testing Jedi, you are? Rocky, the path towards mobile excellence can be. With accelerated delivery and continuous testing, powerful you will become! The process begins by understanding where you are today, and knowing what the path forward entails. Transform your organization’s mobile testing and development teams into efficient, revenue driving machines.

Get ready to launch continuous testing excellence as we embark on a mission to maximize test coverage for flawless web and mobile applications. By empowering your entire testing team and harnessing automated testing tools like BlazeMeter and Perfecto, we will execute tests in parallel at warp speed to unlock superior quality. We will address challenges like team skills, scale, and efficiency to optimize resources and ensure success. Empowering all team members will enable everyone to contribute by creating and executing tests.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of software development, achieving and maintaining high-quality software is a paramount challenge. This talk explores the multifaceted journey of elevating software quality by enabling software quality contributors to influence change through the triad of People, Process, and Technology. Join us for an engaging discussion on how software quality can be elevated through a holistic approach that seeks out stakeholder communication, optimizes processes, and leverages technology to drive meaningful change in today's software development ecosystem.

Properly assessing the performance of a complex system is a long and difficult journey and is becoming incredibly important and measured. With the large adoption of high-speed networks, users’ expectations are becoming more and more important, and cart conversion rate measures show this explicitly. To gain confidence into their systems, vendors have to drive formal performance testing stages and the pain point is that running meaningful performance tests generates lots and lots of data which are painful to analyze, and it might be easy to ignore some of the information contained.

How to implementation of next-gen of Generative AI: Spatial, Autonomous & Ubiquitous computing capabilities. Industry-focused offline LLMs with real-world examples of Autonomous Design Automation (ADA) for auto-generation of digital twins and associated code. Supercharge your organization AI transformation playbook to emphasizes averting investments in ‘prompt engineering’ without AI strategic blueprints and lessons learnt from real world engagements.

Quality professionals are supporting two audiences undergoing huge transformations: development teams embracing DevOps to accelerate development, and consumers increasingly making buying decisions based on the quality of their digital experiences. To help their teams and companies, navigate these shifts, quality leaders need the right metrics to measure their impact on DevOps goals and the customer experience.

Dive into the world of elevated software excellence with the combination of dynamic and static analysis. In this talk, we'll explore how these techniques together can take your software reliability to the next level.

Static analysis inspects code beforehand, uncovering possible issues like memory leaks and messy architecture to prevent software erosion. Whereas dynamic analysis checks software during runtime to find behavior problems.

Join us as we focus on how we can elevate business practices with cutting-edge innovation, communication with an eye on culture, and technical expertise. Whether you are a leader of a large team or a small technical staff, this conversation will provide insight and actionable advice from experts to help your organization move faster with the help of generative AI tools, confident communication, and engagement.

For the past years I’ve seen multiple companies invest heavily in test automation but failing in the last mile: test execution.
Scaling testing efforts in large-scale environments presents unique challenges that demand careful consideration. As the complexity and number of apps to test grows, deciding on the right approach to support test execution is key to ensuring a fast QA cycle for a fast time to market of applications.
