## Why should we care about AI in relation to the testing craft?

_Provide compelling reasons why we need to care about AI and its impact on the testing craft_

1. Within several years most probably it will be everywhere and using AI will be an essential skill
2. It will help you to be more productive

## Examples of how AI can assist testing

_Provide real-life examples of how AI has assisted your testing._

- Generate test cases
- Build end-to-end tests
- Build unit tests
- Helps to prioritize and select which tests to execute for a feature change
- Generate some or all of the code of a test case
- Significantly reduce test maintenance for end-to-end tests

## Risks, worries and concerns about AI in relation to the testing craft

_Capture any risks, worries and concerns about AI, the ethics of AI and its impact on the testing craft_

- There are many risks. Verified sources of data and unconscious bias in test data selection are major risks. These may result in lower quality if a system is tested using incorrect data and/or only a subset of possible data coverage. — Charmaine Short ([source](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ministry-of-testing_what-are-the-risks-of-using-ai-in-testing-activity-7043953652960501760-fLlX?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop))
- AI Models are sill in learning phase, at a big pic. In the linear algebraic\computational mathematical models we use, there may be delta error now, which later, at extreme level of calculations\optimizations which may end up in major error with impact to business. — Roopam Chopra ([source](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ministry-of-testing_what-are-the-risks-of-using-ai-in-testing-activity-7043953652960501760-fLlX?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop))
- Bias — Ville Rytinki ([source](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ministry-of-testing_what-are-the-risks-of-using-ai-in-testing-activity-7043953652960501760-fLlX?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop))

In a research project with University of Texas Dallas we have developed a MVP with these key features:

1. Prompt library to customize inputs for each testing need.
2. Integrates 8 different LLMs to provide a range of capabilities.
3. Optimized for generating software testing artifacts and content.
4. Follows a client-server model for accessibility and scalability.
5. Outputs can feed directly into testing and QA workflows.
6. Enables iterative drafting and refining of test plans/reports.
7. Designed to integrate with agile development environments.
8. Improves velocity and quality of test documentation.

To recap, this software solution aims to enhance agile testing processes specifically by using its #promptdesign library and multi-LLM design to produce high-quality test plans, reports, and other QAtesting documentation more efficiently. The multi-LLM solution provides the flexibility and optimization to accelerate testing activity in agile environments.

Send me a note if you would like to learn more, I’m a new user and cannot attach the design documentation. The [multi-LLM Harvey Ball analysis is available on LinkedIn here](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7129441184057327616?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop).

AI is a magician performing a trick. You don’t know how it works, you make assumptions, you’re amazed at the output. And the magician never reveals their secrets.

Always be careful about solutions you don’t understand, especially if you don’t understand the problem.

The responsibility stops with you. [You’re the one who ends up in the news.](https://www.reuters.com/legal/new-york-lawyers-sanctioned-using-fake-chatgpt-cases-legal-brief-2023-06-22/)
