Summary
AI is rapidly changing how software is built, dramatically increasing the speed of development. As engineering workflows accelerate, quality engineering needs to evolve alongside them.

This talk explores how teams can move beyond simple prompting toward more systematic and trustworthy agentic test automation workflows.

We’ll look at how to design test automation frameworks that allow AI agents to assist engineering teams with greater speed, consistency, and reliability. We’ll also walk through practical examples of how to apply these ideas in real projects.
