Advancing Test Automation Using Artificial Intelligence (AI)NEXTA at Tamandaré

Keynote speaker: Jeremy S. Bradbury, PhD, Associate Professor, Computer Science, Associate Dean, School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Ontario Tech University. Abstract: In recent years, software testing automation has been enhanced through the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques including genetic algorithms, machine learning and deep learning. The use cases for AI in test automation range from providing recommendations to the complete automation of software testing activities. To demonstrate the breadth of application, I will present several recent examples of how AI can be leveraged to support automated testing in rapid release cycles. Furthermore, I will discuss my own successes and failures in using AI to advance test automation as well as share the lesson I have learned. Session Chair: Sahar Tahvili
