EMPOWER MANUAL TESTERS: CREATE CUSTOM GPT WITH RAG FOR KEEPING TRACK OF YET UNTESTED AREAS OF THE BUILD

As QA Lead, did you have a situation when you know that not all areas of the build have been tested yet, but you just cannot quickly identify where test efforts have'n't been yet deployed? Maybe some of the QA contractors finished the assigned areas and asking where they should dive next? How to avoid assigning for manual testing areas that rarely see new issues, especially when little changes have been made by developers in that part of the code? Build a chatbot that has all up-to-date information on the changed areas as well as already reported hotspots of bugs to optimize costly manual QA effort deployment!

AI POWERED PERFORMANCE TESTING

Performance testing ensures that software applications are able to handle expected loads and perform at their best under various conditions. Despite their effectiveness, traditional performance testing methods often involve significant manual effort and cannot keep up with the complexity of modern software systems. AI offers promising solutions for these challenges, making performance testing more efficient, accurate, and adaptive.
