software testing in artificial intelligence   It is no more a secret that consumers purchasing inside stores are being watched. Whether it is a premium boutique store like Calvin Klein or a big box retailer like Walmart, overhead cameras have become a regular fixture inside stores. These cameras record the activities of shoppers to identify instances of shoplifting. However, what if these cameras continuously scrutinize the faces of shoppers through an arrangement and look for potential shoplifters? Biometric technologies like facial recognition have become more robust, accessible and advanced with the incorporation of artificial intelligence. Now, several stores are utilizing facial recognition technology to spot shoplifters. As per a survey by the National Retail Foundation, retail organizations lose about 50 billion dollars annually due to shoplifting. Previously, facial recognition was associated with cybersecurity but today, it has an active application into other...

How can AI bring value in your QA efforts?   The spectrum of software testing has broadened considerably. This is due to the fact that the software of today has interfaces with other software, systems, networks, and platforms through APIs. The systems mentioned herein are the various devices (mobiles, tablets, laptops etc) or legacy machines of various make, configuration and resolution. The complexity arising out of such an arrangement renders the testing of software a tricky affair. Importantly, the use of test automation under the Agile and DevOps framework has helped matters to some extent with an increase in the test coverage area, better identification of glitches, accelerating the time to market, and realizing the ROI. Quality assurance can pre-empt the failure of software, be it in terms of performance, functionality, security, or usability. It has become the pre-requisite for digital transformation for it helps the software application to not only meet the b...
