AI Testing – Label all the things
Iosif Itkin,
CEO and co-Founder, Exactpro
As part of the event, Iosif Itkin, CEO and co-founder, Exactpro, gave a talk on AI Testing – Label all the things.
“AI-powered software testing is now reality. It can help introduce immense efficiencies by helping human testers generate comprehensive realistic test scripts enabling fuller coverage of software systems, due to the sheer volume of permutations it can cover. However, to strike a balance between time efficiency and test efficacy, it is essential to harness the power of labelled test data. This conference talk explores the significance of labelling test data to track coverage points and optimise the arrays of tests. By incorporating meaningful labels, we can extract valuable insights, continuously refine testing strategies, and ensure that the tests executed provide timely and accurate actionable information for enhancing software quality and reliability. Join us to uncover the potential of data annotation underpinning Exactpro’s AI Testing strategy.”
