Probably test case design as it would allow users (even with lesser experience) to generate a wide range of test cases that cover edge cases, typical use cases, and even unexpected scenarios.

It would also be useful for the others listed. But test case design could have the most impact.

That said, I still don’t think people should rely on a generated answer, it should be checked and confirmed to be correct for your needs.

Defect Prediction is not done with prompting. It’s more of an ML system that just runs.

Test Data Creation is static, you know what you need all you maybe need is randomized data, you can use AI there too but faker.js is also pretty sweet.

Test reporting & test case design is what is left.
So my choice goes to test case design since it will make you come up with new things. Reporting is also quite nice to detect anomalies over multiple test runs. But yea I had to choose :smiley:
