These Challenges Should Not Be an Issue for QA Teams Anymore These Challenges Should Not Be an Issue for QA Teams Anymore

QA teams play a vital role in ensuring software quality, customer satisfaction, and efficient development. However, challenges such as limited testing talent, poor documentation, and lack of automation persist. AI-powered tools can address these issues by automating repetitive tasks, generating documentation, and improving test efficiency. By leveraging AI, QA teams can enhance their effectiveness and contribute to the success of software development projects.

Artificial Intelligence for Object Detection and Its Metadata Artificial Intelligence for Object Detection and Its Metadata

Deep learning, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), has transformed object detection in computer vision. These AI models excel at identifying and pinpointing objects in images and videos with high accuracy.  However, integrating metadata like object class, location, and time with AI object detection unlocks even greater potential. This enriched data provides valuable insights for applications in autonomous vehicles, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing.

AI/ML Testing and Your Test Future (Part 2) AI/ML Testing and Your Test Future (Part 2)

AI, AI, AI—it is everywhere. We all read this in the news, see it in politics, in our web traffic, and now it’s coming to our tools. Interestingly, testing has been identified as one of the most essential areas for AI as well as for the safety of the public. This article considers references to start you on your AI test journey, "classic AI" problem areas, and identifies possible concepts to use when testing AI. As usual, it comes down to a willingness to learn new things or apply historical ideas to advance your test career.
