SUMMARY:AI-Augmented Manual Testing with PLUS QA
DESCRIPTION:PNW Software Quality Professionals (PNSQC)\nJoin us for our Ap
 ril meetup\, presented and hosted by **[PLUS QA](https://plusqa.com)** in 
 Southeast Portland!\n‎ ‎\nThis month\, PLUS QA's own **VP** **[Ryan Wi
 lder](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-wilder-824812137/)** and **Lead Dev
 ** **[Gianni Zamora](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gianni-zamora-9203abaa/)*
 * walk us through how they're building AI solutions that work within their
  well-practiced manual testing strategies.\n‎ ‎\nThrough a live demo a
 nd discussion\, you'll see how PLUS QA tackled this challenge by embedding
  AI capabilities into their existing tools and in-house software\, fine-tu
 ning results and workflows to fit the way their teams already worked. Stri
 king the right balance of custom AI tooling amplified the natural strength
  of manual testing\, seamlessly boosting the daily tasks accomplished by p
 roject leads and testers without the burden of adopting yet another outsid
 e tool.\n‎\nIt's a practical\, human-centered take on AI in QA\, expandi
 ng what manual testers can do while emphasizing the high-quality human exp
 ertise that great testing demands.\n‎‎\nThis will be a **hybrid meetup
 **\, so mingle in person or tune in online. Doors (and virtual lobby) open
  at 6 pm for a half hour of pre-talk networking.\n‎‎\nSchedule:\n\n* *
 *6:00 - 6:30pm** Networking (online included)\n* **6:30 - 8:00pm** AI-Augm
