What we’re about
• London AI-Native Test Automation & DevOps [#LondonAITAD]
Welcome to London AI-Native Test Automation & DevOps 🚀
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For QA, DevOps, and Developers transitioning from traditional SDLC to AI-Native and Agentic SDLC.
We are re-branding this group from "London Test Automation in DevOps" to the "London AI-Native Test Automation & DevOps"
Artificial Intelligence and agentic systems are transforming how we build, test, and deliver software. Traditional SDLC practices are evolving rapidly, and roles in QA and DevOps are being redefined. This community helps you stay ahead of the curve — by learning, sharing, and experimenting with the tools, skills, and mindsets needed for the AI-Native era.
How AI & Agents Are Changing QA and DevOps
- From scripting to prompting: Test automation evolves into AI-driven, self-healing tests.
- From pipelines to orchestration: DevOps shifts into agentic workflows coordinating multiple tools and models.
- From monitoring to intelligence: Observability enhanced with AI-powered insights and anomaly detection.
- From manual checks to autonomous quality: QA becomes more about curating data, guiding agents, and validating outcomes.
Skills You’ll Need in the AI-Native Era
- Prompt/Context engineering & evaluation for automation and workflows
- Agent orchestration & multi-agent systems
- AI-native testing strategies (self-healing, data-driven, generative tests)
