How does BearQ autonomous QA work? Your top questions answered

Apr 10, 2026 By Maggie Bean In SmartBear
Testing software at scale has always been a race against change. Then, AI-coding turned what was once a challenge into a crisis: rapid development cycles accelerated by AI have made it impossible to maintain comprehensive test coverage and catch issues before they impact users. In SmartBear’s Closing the AI Software Quality Gap Study, 60% of software experts told us they experienced quality issues as development outpaces testing.

How to scale API standards across large teams | Swagger Studio

Apr 10, 2026 By SmartBear In SmartBear
When multiple designers and teams contribute APIs, you face inconsistent schemas, divergent patterns, and broken assumptions. However, the "shift-left" approach to API standardization helps you catch issues early, automate compliance, and maintain quality without manual gating – making your API program truly scalable. In this video, SmartBear Senior Solution Engineer Joe Joyce demonstrates how to enforce consistent API standards across large development teams using Swagger Studio's governance, collaboration, and CI/CD integration features.

When Your Observability Literally Stops Traffic

Apr 9, 2026 By Alan Mon In Speedscale
Last week, a fleet of autonomous robotaxis in China suddenly stopped working—at scale. Over a hundred vehicles stalled across a city, stranding passengers in traffic and raising immediate concerns about safety, reliability, and trust in autonomous systems. This wasn’t just a bad day for self-driving cars. It was a distributed systems failure, one that happened in the physical world, not just in dashboards.

OpenTelemetry Trace Testing for CI Release Gates

Apr 9, 2026 By Kush Mansingh In Speedscale
OpenTelemetry is great at answering one question: “what just broke?” The problem is that most teams need a different answer first: “what is about to break in this release?” That is where trace-based testing comes in, especially for teams running a vendor-neutral OTel stack (Collector + Tempo/Jaeger + Prometheus) and needing deterministic release gates.

Full Stack AI for Healthcare: Optimizing Clinical Workflows with Conversational AI for Authorization

Apr 9, 2026 By WSO2 In WSO2
Prior authorization is one of the biggest drivers of clinician burnout and care delays, costing the U.S. healthcare system billions in administrative waste every year. Traditional automation hasn't been able to handle the complexity of real-world clinical documentation. Until now. In this session, we go beyond the AI hype to show real outcomes of AI in healthcare, demonstrating how Agentic Conversational AI, integrated directly into EHR workflows, is transforming the prior authorization process.
