New Year, New Skills: Level Up Your Quality Engineering with mabl

Want to kick off the new year with a renewed focus on professional development? mabl is here to help you elevate your quality engineering skills and stay ahead of the curve in 2025. We're offering two exciting opportunities to expand your knowledge and boost your testing expertise: a brand-new AI training course and a comprehensive webinar series.  

Why AI Matters for Modern Software Testing

AI is rapidly changing the landscape of software testing. By integrating AI into your testing strategy, you can achieve remarkable improvements in speed, accuracy, and coverage. Here's how:

• Enhanced Test Creation: Traditional test creation can be time-consuming and prone to errors. AI-powered tools streamline this process, enabling you to generate tests faster and with greater precision.
• Reduced Maintenance Burden: Test maintenance is a constant challenge for testers. AI can significantly reduce this burden by automatically identifying and resolving issues, freeing up your time for more strategic tasks.
• Improved Test Reliability: Flaky tests are a major source of frustration. AI algorithms can identify and mitigate these issues, leading to more reliable results and greater confidence in your testing process.
• Expanded Test Coverage: Achieving comprehensive test coverage is crucial for ensuring software quality. AI can help you expand your coverage by automatically generating tests for complex workflows and edge cases that might otherwise be missed.

Unlock the Power of AI in Software Testing

Our latest training course dives deep into the world of AI-powered testing. This comprehensive program will equip you with the knowledge and practical skills needed to transform your testing workflows and harness the full potential of AI.

Lesson 1: Taking Test Creation to the Next Level with AI

This lesson focuses on how AI can revolutionize the test creation process, making it faster, more accurate, and more efficient. You'll learn to:

• Harness the Power of GenAI Assertions: Imagine automatically generating assertions that validate complex UI elements, API responses, or database values. GenAI makes this possible, significantly speeding up test creation and reducing the risk of human error. For example, if you're testing an e-commerce application, GenAI can automatically create assertions to verify product details, shopping cart functionality, and order confirmations.
• Generate Reusable JavaScript Snippets: Need to handle a complex testing scenario that goes beyond mabl's built-in features? AI can help! You'll learn to generate reusable JavaScript snippets for tasks like interacting with dynamic elements, handling custom UI components, or integrating with third-party APIs. This empowers you to extend mabl's capabilities and tackle virtually any testing challenge.
• Validate Databases with AI-Driven Queries: Ensuring data integrity is crucial for many applications. In this lesson, you'll discover how to use AI to generate SQL queries that validate database values, relationships, and schema. This streamlines the process of database testing and ensures the accuracy of your data.

Lesson 2: Streamlining Testing with AI-powered Test Maintenance

Test maintenance is a constant battle for many quality professionals. This lesson explores how AI can help you minimize maintenance efforts and keep your tests running smoothly. You'll learn to:

• Master Intelligent Wait and Auto-heal: Flaky tests caused by timing issues or unexpected UI changes can be a major headache. mabl's intelligent wait and auto-heal features leverage AI to dynamically adjust to your application's behavior, reducing flaky tests and runtime errors. This means less time spent troubleshooting and more time focused on high-value testing activities.
• Identify and Implement AI-Driven Optimizations: mabl's AI analyzes your tests and identifies areas for improvement. You'll learn to interpret these recommendations and implement optimizations that reduce test execution time, improve test stability, and minimize maintenance efforts.
• Enhance Test Execution Efficiency: By reducing test maintenance and false negatives, you can significantly improve the efficiency of your test execution. This means faster feedback cycles, quicker identification of bugs, and accelerated software delivery.

Lesson 3: Shaping the Future of Testing with AI

This lesson takes a broader look at the role of AI in software testing, exploring its potential to transform the way we approach quality assurance. You'll learn to:

• Understand the Different Types of AI: Gain a deeper understanding of the various types of AI used in testing, including expert systems, machine learning, and generative AI. This knowledge will help you make informed decisions about how to best leverage AI in your testing strategy.
• Align mabl's AI Features with Your Testing Challenges: Learn to identify specific testing challenges within your organization and determine how mabl's AI-powered features can address them. This will help you maximize the benefits of AI and achieve your quality goals.
• Develop a Strategic Roadmap for AI Adoption: This lesson guides you through the process of developing a strategic roadmap for integrating AI capabilities into your team's testing workflows. You'll learn to assess your current testing practices, identify opportunities for AI adoption, and create a plan for implementation.
