In the ever-evolving landscape of software testing, the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has not just been a game-changer; it’s been a paradigm shift. Test automation, once a static process, has metamorphosed into a dynamic and intelligent entity, reshaping how we approach quality assurance.

The current state of AI, despite the relevant infancy of the tools, showcases promising potential. While human assistance is still needed, the convergence of chat UI and large language models allows users to ask for what they want in a natural language, and the technology is growing intelligent enough to respond or even take action.

Regression testing is a must-have testing activity. A quite common best practice is to build a regression test suite consisting of many related test cases for a particular feature. This test suite is scheduled to run automatically after a code update to check if that particular feature is affected by the update. The real question is not about how to build a regression test suite, but rather, on what criteria we should categorize our test cases.
