Session: Goodbye Test Scripts: How Gen AI Is Tackling the Untestable
AI is changing the game in software testing—helping teams accelerate delivery, increase test stability, and catch defects before they reach production. But how do you cut through the hype and apply AI-driven testing in a way that delivers real value?
In this session, led by Surya Suravarapu, you will discover:
- How AI is solving real-world testing challenges—reducing test flakiness, optimizing execution time, and improving risk-based testing
- AI-powered test generation and execution—how leading teams create comprehensive test cases 10x faster
- Self-healing automation that slashes maintenance time—keeping tests stable as applications change
- AI-driven defect prediction and analytics—how organizations are preventing critical failures before they happen
We will cut through the noise and focus on proven AI strategies that top engineering teams use to reduce test cycle time, increase automation reliability, and scale testing across web, mobile, and APIs.
By the end of this session, you’ll have clear, actionable steps to integrate AI into your existing test processes—helping you test smarter, release faster, and improve quality with confidence.
