APIs are the new world order and more-and-more businesses are cashing in on the value of making sections of code readily available to other applications. However, APIs present particular testing challenges and testers must embrace the modern development practices associated with them. Faced with complex chains of APIs, testers need a systematic approach to generate tests which are rigorous, but can be executed within a short iteration. The tests require accurate test data and production like environments, which must all be updated whenever one API changes. All of this must be done while dealing with multiple versions, orders and assemblies. This session will demonstrate: • A structured, model-based approach to exhaustively testing individual APIs, while chaining these tests together to form more complex types of tests • How API testing can be rigorous, proportional and realistic, generating accurate API tests based on empirically defined risk thresholds • How dependency mapping can be used to update tests, data and environments consistently whenever one or more APIs in the chain changes

The legendary @Toby Marsden who since 1994 toby has been revolutionizing the technology landscape as a strategic leader at companies such as Micro Focus, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, CA Technologies, CAST, Compuware and the last 5 plus years Keysight as part of the senior leadership team at Eggplant heading up global partnerships.
Toby has over 25 years’ experience of understanding client needs, proposing solutions and helping customer achieve their goals through successful implementations. He has worked across sales, marketing and professional services roles for multinational software companies and start-ups. Over Toby’s career the way software has been developed and how we release applications has changed considerably, in fact the pace of change has been phenomenal, therefore we must help organisations adopt new ways of working and leverage technology but not compromise end user experiences and business value. For the last 15 years Toby has been focused on helping customers manage complex software delivery challenges by adopting automated delivery practices across the application lifecycle. He is currently part of Eggplant’s management team, which become part of the Keysight family in 2020 and provides AI Assisted Intelligent Test Automation. His is currently on a mission to is to develop a 1st class partner ecosystem that creates increased value to Keysight’s customers.

Dive into our latest episode hosted by Nico Carnival interviewing the Automation Cyborg around the new AI-Augmented tool "Sentient AI Testing Agents".
Uncover the game-changing potential the world's first Sentient AI Testing Agents using next generation technology for business, development & testing.
🔑 Highlights:
Insights into next generation AI-Augmented Testing capabilities.
Discussion on how AI is reshaping the holy grail of testing (requirements > testing > product).
Future prospects of AI in tech innovation (LLM-RAG-GNN-8X7B).
They discussed the changes in artificial intelligence, including advancements in AI augmented testing and generative AI. The conversation focused on generative AI and its potential applications, such as #AIAugmentTesting in different industries.
Concerns were raised about the trustworthiness and privacy of public-facing GPTs (#BanChatGPT), as well as the importance of finetuning LLMs for specific domains and expertise. Jonathon raised the importance of #GNN (#GraphNeuralNetwork) by combining knowledge graphs into #RAG (#RetrievalAugmentedGeneration) architecture to improve understanding of complex systems.
💡 Gain invaluable knowledge about the power and possibilities of AI-Augmented Testing. Don't miss out on this enlightening conversation!

🌟 Exciting developments in AI for software testing! Here are some key takeaways from a recent discussion on leveraging ChatGPT in the testing domain:
1️⃣ ChatGPT can help testers generate automation scripts, API tests, and requirements with ease, even if they're not fluent in these areas.
2️⃣ ChatGPT has the potential to provide context-aware guidance for testers working in various industries, such as finance, legal, and medical.
3️⃣ Testers can use ChatGPT to generate tests that achieve a high level of coverage, improving the quality of the software.
4️⃣ ChatGPT can fit nicely into a test-driven development regime, making it easier for developers to write and run tests as they code.
5️⃣ Future capabilities, like image uploads, can enable ChatGPT to analyze web pages or mobile apps and provide detailed test scenarios.
6️⃣ Combining domain knowledge with ChatGPT's testing expertise could lead to a powerful synergy for testers across industries.
🚀 AI is revolutionizing the way we test software, and we're excited to see where this journey takes us! #softwaretesting #ai #chatgpt #testingrevolution
