Combining Automation Frameworks with Design Patterns | Raneesh Chaudhary | #Testflix2024

In this insightful session, Raneesh Chaudhary dives into the world of automation frameworks and how design patterns can empower them to handle more complex, "heavier" lifting. With design patterns as a foundation, scaling becomes a whole lot easier, setting your automation frameworks up for high-impact, long-term success. Raneesh walks us through the practical benefits of incorporating design patterns like the Facade, Factory, and Singleton, each bringing unique strengths to the table—from simplifying complex systems to managing resources efficiently.

New Challenges in Software Quality Brought by GenAI and LLMs | Federico Toledo | #Testflix2024

In this compelling talk, Federico delves into the new challenges in software quality brought by the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) and Large Language Models (LLMs). As these advanced technologies become more integrated into applications, ensuring their quality presents unique hurdles. He explores the specific quality concerns associated with using LLMs, GenAI, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and discuss innovative testing approaches tailored to these systems. This session is designed to help you navigate these complexities, ensuring your applications not only meet but exceed quality standards.

Functional Testing: An In-Depth Overview

To define it simply, we can say- Functional testing ensures every part of an application does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s about verifying that the software’s functions and features behave as expected from an end-user’s perspective. And unlike other types of testing, such as performance or load testing, functional testing focuses on the functionality itself rather than factors like speed or stability under load.

The Power of AI-Driven Automation in Crafting Customer-Centric Contact Centers
