Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are increasingly used in software testing. These technologies are no longer at the fringes and are a vital part of testing in many organisations. Read on to find out why they are a big deal for software testers.
As a professional software tester, you know that functional testing is a critical part of software development; applications must work as intended and meet the needs of end-users. You also know that, despite development becoming more complex and fast-paced, testing is always squeezed.
These days, software testers need automation tools to do more and to work on more platforms than ever before.
Because of this, choosing an automation tool that accelerates testing and does more of the heavy lifting is game-changing. It’s like bringing on your newly signed striker in the 2nd half and going from 2-0 down to win 3-2.
The correct test tools help you gain broader insight into software quality and allow you to identify and fix defects faster. Nowadays, AI and ML-based capabilities mean you can accelerate testing while increasing coverage and mitigating risk more efficiently than ever.
