Building Autonomous AI Testing Agents: From Hype to Reality – Workshop
AI testing agents are transforming quality assurance, but a proper understanding of their strengths and limitations is essential for effective implementation. This workshop will provide a practical overview of what existing AI testing tools can currently do and where the challenges lie.
Build your own agentic workflow in a hands-on format:
- Design a testplan agent that generates test cases for a feature
- Run a browser agent that executes test cases autonomously and reports back to the pull request
- Integrate This AI workflow directly into your CI/CD pipeline
- Understand when to use AI vs. when to complement it with standard test automation
You’ll leave with practical knowledge of how to introduce AI testing agents into real workflows, plus hands-on experience using Mastra.ai as the agent framework and Browser Use to perform tasks autonomously on the web.
