If you’re a tester wondering what “AI agents in Testing” actually means (beyond Copilot demos), I wrote a two-part article that breaks it down using a simple 5W1H lens. The first part is here on the ShiftSync blog. shiftsync.tricentis.com/testing-deve...

The council goes to work. What you get back is gold: ✅ Fresh Ideas 🔍 Gaps & blind spots 🛠️ Detailed Plans A 24/7 advisory board for your brain. This isn’t just smart—it’s ancient wisdom, upgraded. Akbar had his Navratnas. You’ve got your LLMs. Old strategy. New tools. Massive leverage.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 21/04/2025

Each LLM brings unique strengths— One's a code genius. Another's a creative spark. Another spots flaws like a devil’s advocate. Together? They become your Council of LLMs. How it works: You bring a basic idea. You craft a solid prompt: → What → How → With context, examples, and goals.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 21/04/2025

The smartest leaders in history never made decisions alone. 👑 Kings had councils. 🏛️ Governments have expert panels. 🧠 Why? Diverse minds = better outcomes. Now imagine having your own council... But instead of people, it’s made up of the world’s best AI models.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

And judgment requires context, nuance, and ownership. Responsibility and testing are two sides of the same coin. You can’t outsource one without weakening the other. Autonomy without accountability? That’s irresponsibility. AI agents should empower, not replace. Thoughts?

020

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

My take on AI agents (especially in testing): Not every problem needs a fully autonomous system. Sometimes, what you really need… is a smart assistant, not a decision-maker. Testing is one of those problems. The human must remain in the loop. Why? Because testing is judgment. And judgment... 1/2

• Staying in the Comfort Zone: Growth happens when you push beyond what’s familiar — don’t be afraid to challenge yourself. • Ignoring Trends: The tech landscape evolves rapidly. Keeping up with the latest trends and demands is crucial to staying relevant.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

• Chasing Shortcuts: There’s no substitute for the hard work and persistence needed to truly master your craft. • Pointing Fingers: Blaming managers, colleagues, or even your company only delays taking personal responsibility for growth. • Avoiding Proof of Work in Public

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

• Learning Without Action: Absorbing knowledge without putting it into practice means your hard-earned lessons fade away. • Resource Hoarding: Saving links, references, and tutorials without ever actually using them? That’s a fast track to underdevelopment.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

How do you ensure you remain “unhirable” as a tester? It might sound counterintuitive, but here’s a checklist of habits that could be sabotaging your career: • Neglecting Your Craft: If you’re not constantly sharpening your skills, you’re setting yourself up for stagnation.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

Before Gen AI, I was not able to find time to create these micro utils for my work. Atleast not to the extent I do now. “Idea to a quick prototype” has become a lot faster. Code is no more a restriction (provided you understand reading it) My micro util workflow: Think - Prototype - Test - Use.

000

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

It is applicable to some coding tasks (regular code development). For testers, it can be regular test code development. Eg. Writing Scripts Based on Existing Scripts (Redundant Nature of Work). In day to day work, it helps me w/ quick micro utils by helping with building blocks and modification

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 03/03/2025

If used wisely, you can use AI to automate the automation. That's like 100x efficiency. What needed a team of engineers can now be done quickly (but the catch is you need to know what needs to be done)

100

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 01/03/2025

And if you can learn like this, it will be 10x faster, and you can achieve success. You can complete the portfolio project. You can start your blog. You can articulate your thoughts on any learned topic with 10x clarity. Apply your learnings or wait till they fade away.

Rahul Parwal @parwalrahul.bsky.social · 01/03/2025

Here’s a harsh truth about learning: Most of you're learning super slow. You will easily forget what you learned if you don't put it into action against real-world challenges. When you put learning (theory) into action, the real learning happens! 1/2

Debugging a failing test is like navigating a narrow lane. Each wrong turn leads to a dead end.

❌ You keep hearing about AI, but don’t know where to use it (and where not to). ❌ You’ve played around with ChatGPT, but applying it to testing? That’s another story. ❌ You want to stay ahead, but AI feels overwhelming.

Testers, Are you ready to learn and leverage Gen AI? Gen AI is everywhere - on your social feed, in your tools, maybe even in your work coffee ☕ (okay, not yet! 😆) The question is: Are you ready to learn, understand, and use AI in testing? 1/3

Myth: I do not need professional testers. Reality: Almost everyone is capable of doing testing to some degree. However, the risks of poor or low-grade testing cannot be reversed. Time won’t run backward so you can roll back your decision. Customer perceptions are hard to change. Happy testing!

Test planning is a common testing activity, yet every project and test lead does it with their own flavor of experience, context, and testing awareness. * What do you consider when doing your test planning? * How do you document it? In Jira? or In other doc? * Do you also include ET in test plan?

Haha nice! I'm really liking the MoT profiles. It's like a directory of quality and testing professionals, with a catalogue of their work! Like @parwalrahul.bsky.social said, you can also use them as a kind off portfolio. Really nice idea.
