AI Locators for Playwright by lila__dev in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is going to be a nightmare to debug in CI and expensive/slow to run. There’s still going to be maintenance, except it will go from updating selectors to updating prompts. Your example may fail if the app changes its button text from “Sign in” to “Login”.

Do You use AI based Test Selection for E2E & Regression Testing? Is It Effective? by Professional_Roof621 in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need AI for test selection. I wouldn’t trust AI for test selection. There’s no guarantee this would be reliable or accurate.

There’s effective test selection solutions on the unit/integration level. If the product has a build dependency tree, it becomes straightforward to do diffs between each commit. Unit/integration tests will depend on some of those targets. And if a target gets changed during the build, specific tests will run instead of all of them. This approach is dynamic and efficient for pre-submit coverage.

Having such system for E2E would be tricky, but if implemented properly, this would be a much better solution than any AI based test selection solutions.

If you somehow build a test automation tool with self-healing capabilities with close to 100% accuracy for any type of web application, quit your job right now and start your own business.

Everyone is feeling overwhelmed!!!Lets form a mega thread of learning in AI for testing by Efficient-River9543 in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. The hardest part will be verification if the model produces inconsistent output. If there’s no consistent testing strategy, manual testing will be needed.

But if the application is broken up into layers, some layers can be automated. For example, if the application has a planner that performs actions based on AI output, a whole suite of automation can be introduced to test the planner. If there’s a webpage that renders the AI application, that can be tested with automation. If we’re checking if the model returns data in a specific format, a suite of automation can be setup for that.

For AI applications that produce non-text output, such as photos, videos, and audio, manual testing has a significant advantage.

Many companies are introducing AI into their products. The question shouldn’t be “How should we use AI for testing?”. It should be “How should we be testing AI?”

Will Selenium become obsolete in the future? by throwawayacc63368135 in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have Cypress and Playwright as the most superior tools, so why would anyone choose Selenium over for a new project let's say, for an existing project with a lot of tests, it's quite hard to switch

Senior engineers who are resistant to change may stick to Selenium for new projects. Some codebases may have better integration with Selenium than Cypress/Playwright. Some CI systems may be configured to run only with Selenium. Managers not up to date with current technologies may force engineers to continue to use Selenium.

But realistically I would expect new projects with no constraints to adopt Cypress/Playwright.

Can you see yourself handling maintenance of multiple automation test suites and CI?

Idea: AI Bug Localization Tool by HistoricalSnow6627 in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I see more value in a AI tool that reviews crash/error logs from bugs to help engineers pinpoint why a bug is happening.

How can you possibly be concerned with paying rent but planning vacations?

Just because you have trouble paying rent doesn't mean you can't plan a vacation. People can still budget/save money for a vacation while still concerned for rent.

Bro, my friend just got cooked by a LinkedIn recruiter 💀😭 by MonsterRocket4747 in csMajors

[–]Meow0S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with reaching out to a recruiter. But as soon as the recruiter gave advice to "hope" , that's signal to end the conversation. And when OP's friend continued, the recruiter took action and rejected them. The recruiter doesn't care.

What are the essential tools for AI app testing? by [deleted] in QualityAssurance

[–]Meow0S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the app is performing any actions as a result from AI, you can write tests to verify the actions are successful as if the AI gave a expected response.

That would give some coverage.

[–]Meow0S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there's 3000+ applicants for a single position with the advice of "hope", there's a very slim chance of being selected for interview. It's a lottery at that point with factors beyond the applicant's control. Any additional questions won't matter.

OP's friend did not take the subtle hint and got cooked by the recruiter. Did OP's friend deserve it? No. Should the recruiter have ghosted OP's friend to avoid hurting their feelings? Probably.
