Complete guide to understanding vision AI for object recognition | TestComplete

Testing complex UI elements like CAD software, Google Maps, or Citrix environments often leads to brittle tests and false negatives. Vision AI solves these automated testing challenges by recognizing elements just like a human would, reducing manual testing efforts, and improving accuracy. Discover how vision AI strengthens automated testing for visually complex applications. This tutorial shows you how to enhance object recognition in SmartBear TestComplete and eliminate test failures caused by 3D applications, canvas-based apps, and virtualized environments.

Why the "tsunami of code" is breaking QA | From the Bear Cave Ep. 3

Recent SmartBear research shows that 70% of teams are already seeing quality degrade with AI-generated code, creating a real bottleneck in the software-development lifecycle (SDLC). As output increases, QA teams are left choosing between delaying releases to validate changes or shipping faster with less confidence in what’s actually working. In this From the Bear Cave clip, SmartBear CEO Dan Faulkner and CMO Kelly Wenzel dig into a growing gap in modern software development: how AI is accelerating code generation but testing and quality validation aren’t scaling with it.

Velocity can't come at the cost of quality

AI-generated code is flooding your pipelines. Your test automation debt is piling up. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Velocity can't come at the cost of quality. As AI transforms how we build software, API testing must evolve. Join Justin Collier, Senior Director, Product Management, and Yousaf Nabi, Developer Advocate, to explore the future of API testing in an AI-driven world.

Git review for TestComplete projects

Teams using TestComplete face a common problem: one small test change can produce a wide set of modified files, and not all of them deserve the same level of scrutiny. The fix is not to review everything equally – it is to classify TestComplete artifacts by risk, then standardize how your team reviews, stages, and merges them. This article outlines this process and offers best practices for using Git effectively with TestComplete projects.

How does BearQ autonomous QA work? Your top questions answered

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

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.

Inside the SmartBear Roadmap: Delivering Application Integrity Across the SDLC

As software teams move faster across APIs, testing, and observability, keeping application integrity intact is harder than ever. Join SmartBear product leaders for a Now / Next / Later look at how we’re evolving our platform to help teams build, test, and operate software with confidence. What you’ll get from this session: Get a clear view of where SmartBear is headed and how these capabilities come together to help your teams scale quality alongside velocity across the SDLC.

SmartBear testing tools compared

AI-accelerated development has fundamentally changed how software is built, and across the industry, its impact on quality is already measurable. In SmartBear’s Closing the AI software quality gap study, we found nearly 70% of software professionals report application quality is declining as AI speeds up code generation, with development velocity increasingly outpacing teams’ ability to test effectively.
