I’m partnering with SmartBear on a sponsored series of content about tools for the AI era. As always, all opinions are entirely my own. A while ago I watched a mobile app go from a sales prop to a production system in the space of a single meeting. It had been built as a demo, […]

I’m partnering with SmartBear on a sponsored series of content about tools for the AI era. As always, all opinions are entirely my own. SmartBear ran a survey in January 2026 of 273 software testing and quality decision-makers, mostly directors and above, and the writeup, their AI Software Quality Gap Report, lets the numbers speak […]

Before you hand a task to AI, you need to know if it's actually a good candidate. The Easter Bunny has 10,000 eggs to hide across 47 gardens before sunrise. ...

Most AI output problems start before you open the tool. This free scorecard helps you check before you spend hours correcting output.

AI can give you a decent list of test scenarios - if you prompt it well. But the list is starting material, not a test plan. The work of deciding which scena...

Additional thoughts on session three of the AI Evals and Analytics Playbook1. The first part is here2. Every major shift in how we build and ship software has been followed by a wave of tooling that automates the tractable part and leaves the actual problem to the practitioner. Agile gave us story pointing ceremonies and […]

Someone posted a thinking piece in a Slack channel I’m in last week, long and earnest and well-structured, arguing that quality engineering needs to evolve for the age of agentic AI, that we need to stop thinking about quality as testing and start treating it as a systemic property. I read it and felt a […]

Most AI prompts for testing are vague — and you get vague output back. "Write test cases for the SplitPay feature" returns a generic list you already knew. N...

Session two closed with a question I couldn’t answer.1 When a product scores 78% on a given metric, what tells you whether that’s good enough to ship? I flagged it as something session three would probably address, and it did, though not in the way I expected. The question can’t be meaningfully answered until you’ve […]

Session one left me with two things I hadn’t resolved.1 The first was a line the instructor said almost in passing: “the hard part is scalability, not automation.” I wrote it down because it piqued something, but I couldn’t quite work out what problem it was pointing at. The second was a question I kept […]

You know the feature inside out. You have tested it, broken it, rebuilt the test suite around it twice. So you ask the AI to generate a few test cases. Save yourself twenty minutes. What comes back looks reasonable. The structure is right. The naming conventions are close enough. Then you start reading. The first […]

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts on LinkedIn recently that make the same claim: speed of writing code was never the bottleneck in software engineering. The real bottleneck was always thinking, choosing the right thing to build, understanding the problem. AI has just made that painfully obvious. I partly agree, but the framing is […]
