AI-Assisted Testing: Using GitHub Copilot and Other Tools to Accelerate QA
There is no question that Generative AI models can improve the productivity of almost every role within the software development process. However, while a lot of attention has focused on generating software using tools such as GitHub Copilot, Amazon CodeWhisperer, Tabnine, and more, these tools can assist software testers in their job too. Join Coveros CEO Jeffery Payne to explore how Generative AI solutions help software testers generate and supplement tests, create automated test scripts, and even suggest improvements to what you’ve already created. Learn how AI can increase test coverage, reduce testing time, and improve overall quality. See some of these tools in action to better understand how they work and what they produce. Take home new concepts and ideas that will help increase your test productivity and your AI skills.
