How AI is fundamentally changing test automation

AI is changing how we test software. In this article I discuss what that means concretely for QA teams.

The shift from rules to models

Traditional test automation works on fixed rules and scripts. AI-driven testing looks at patterns and behaviour — and adapts when the system changes.

What this means for your team

Your team no longer needs to manually maintain every test script. AI tools can spot regressions, generate test cases and prioritise based on risk.
