The myths and promises circulating around autonomous software testing are wild and stormy.
Tool providers claim to enable autonomous software testing, but upon closer inspection, the technology isn't genuinely autonomous, or the process has nothing to do with testing.
Has autonomous testing also become the buzzword in your environment right after artificial intelligence?
In the recent episode of the TestGuild Automation Testing Podcast, test automation icon Joe Colantonio and our CEO Tobias Müller debunk all the myths surrounding autonomous testing.
The session explores with Tobias as he illuminates popular misconceptions surrounding autonomous software testing. He clearly delineates the differences between automated and autonomous testing, offering a critical perspective on the current effectiveness of fully autonomous solutions. Despite encountering obstacles, Tobias envisions a future where autonomous testing could greatly streamline the testing process by utilizing extensive datasets and sophisticated learning algorithms.
Their discussion promotes a collaborative relationship between human expertise and artificial intelligence to boost the efficiency of testing processes, while still preserving essential human contributions.
The potential and limitations of AI in testing are discussed, with a particular emphasis on the vital role of human oversight in the decision-making framework.
You'll learn:
- What autonomous testing really is, and what form of it we will never have
- Examples of what is being marketed as "Autonomous Testing" but ultimately has little to do with autonomous testing
- A realistic vision of how autonomous testing can actually simplify the testing process
- The potential and limitations of artificial intelligence in software testing
