The first chapter compares modern functional testing with Visual AI against legacy functional testing with coded assertions of application output. Raja states that Visual AI allows for modern functional testing while using an existing functional test tool that relies on coded assertions results in lost productivity.
Imagine this. You built a page with CanvasJS, and you want to test the graphs. How do you create an automated test for the graphical representations? It’s testing dynamic content, after all. This question haunts most test developers. In lots of cases, companies do lots of manual tests on the first release to make sure […]
Data-driven testing helps build and scale test automation – until you have to maintain your tests. Visual AI helps you test without growing your test code.

The future of software testing is autonomy: creating programs that autonomously test applications. So should you fear for your future, or be excited by the opportunities? Watch this special end-of-year session with Gil Tayar, and learn if AI in software testing is something to look forward to: will it make software testers better? Or obsolete?
There is something similar about driving and testing. While testing is an exercise in creativity, parts of it are boring — just like driving is. Regression testing is tedious in that you need to do the same tests over and over again, every time a release is created, just like your daily commute. And just like during […]
