How Perforce Built an AI Agent Orchestrator for Code Review, QA, and Bug Fixes

Aug 20, 2026 By Perforce In Perforce

In April 2026, when our Perforce engineering team was introduced to Claude, my team didn't jump straight into using it. We sat down, mapped our entire development lifecycle, and asked one focused question: Where does AI create the highest impact for us, specifically?

What is Spike Testing in Performance Testing?

Aug 20, 2026 By Bogdan In LoadFocus

Spike testing applies a sharp, sudden increase in load, holds it briefly, then drops back. It is not about the maximum number of users; a system can pass a stress test at a higher level and still fail a spike at a lower one, because the failure comes from the rate of change rather than the volume.

Get more control over AI Test Case Generation in Xray

Aug 20, 2026 By Mariana Santos In Xray

Writing Tests from Requirements often starts with the same decision: how many scenarios does this change actually need? The number of Tests needed for a Requirement depends on the behavior it describes. A small change may require only a few Tests, while a feature with several acceptance criteria, user roles, and possible outcomes may need a broader set. AI Test Case Generation in Xray now lets testers account for that difference before generation begins.

Keep API tests in sync with OpenAPI using Claude Code | SmartBear ReadyAPI

Aug 20, 2026 By SmartBear In SmartBear

Want your API tests to stay accurate every time your OpenAPI spec changes? See how the SmartBear ReadyAPI MCP Server connects directly to Claude Code, so your API tests stay in sync with your OpenAPI spec without manual rework so you stay apace of change. In this walkthrough, Adrian Minnock, SmartBear Solutions Engineering Team Lead, configures the ReadyAPI MCP Server and connects it to Claude Code from the terminal. The demo also shows how ReadyAPI detects and repairs tests automatically after a spec change, then runs the new suite with ReadyAPI's own execution engine.

AI-Driven Cross-Platform Testing: A Smarter Path for Enterprise QA

Aug 20, 2026 By Perforce In Perforce

Testing across web, mobile, and performance layers has become one of the hardest problems in enterprise software delivery. Teams juggle fragile scripts, siloed tools, and mounting maintenance work that slows every release. AI cross-platform testing changes that equation, and Perforce Autonomous Testing puts it within reach. In this post, you will learn what AI-driven cross-platform testing is, why it matters for QA leaders, and how Perforce Autonomous Testing works from setup to execution.

Reliability Engineering in the AI Era

Aug 19, 2026 By Matt LeRay In Speedscale

Engineering leaders have been claiming to “shift quality left” for years but production remains stubbornly stuck out of reach of software engineers. The realm of production remains mysterious with tools no one has access to and UIs that wouldn’t make sense to engineers anyway. I’ve noticed a small but growing trend of large enterprises hiring Reliability Engineers instead of Site Reliability Engineers. Dropping one word looks cosmetic but I think it points to a much bigger change.

From Telemetry to Traffic

Aug 19, 2026 By Matt LeRay In Speedscale

A metric says latency increased. A log says a request failed. A trace identifies the slow dependency. An APM agent points to the method. Manual instrumentation explains the business operation. Traffic capture shows the exact request and response that triggered it. Each layer answers a question the previous layer could not. Each also introduces a new cost, blind spot, and failure mode.
