TestIL group & Loox are pleased to organize **Meetup on the topic**: “Next-Gen Testing: Tools & AI Agents” \>\>\> The Meetup will be held in “Loox” office \- 40 Tuval St\.\, Ramat Gan \(Sapir Tower\) \(14th floor\) <<< **Schedule:** **18:00 -** Networking and Pizza **18:30 -** TestIL intro **18:45 -** “Almost free agents with Claude Code and Ollama” by Alex Komanov \| Automation QA Engineer **19:15 -** “AI\-Orchestrated QA” by Jack Raif \| QA Team Leader and Ofir Blumental \| Automation QA Engineer **Lecture by Alex Komanov \| Automation QA Engineer \- [Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexander-komanov-88b138158/)** Topic: “Almost free agents with Claude Code and Ollama” "Claude Code" and "Ollama" make AI agents almost free — whether on the cloud or your own machine. We’ll explore what’s possible and where free tier and RAM draw the line. **Lecture by Jack Raif \| QA Team Leader @ Loox \- [Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-raif-yaakov-raif-760865110/)** **and Ofir Blumental \| Automation QA Engineer @ Loox \- [Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ofir-blumental/)** Topic: “AI-Orchestrated QA” Single-prompt AI tools are useful, but real QA work is not a single prompt. It is research, planning, approval, implementation, validation, and reporting. In this talk, we will unpack what an agent actually is, what an orchestrator does, and how chaining specialized agents through a structured workflow turns AI from a fancy autocomplete into a teammate that ships test plans and automated tests end-to-end. You will see a live orchestrator that takes a feature description and walks it from “I have an idea” to a validated, passing test, with humans in the loop where it counts. **The lectures will be held in Hebrew.** Upon arrival at the building, an ID card or other identification document must be left at the entrance as a deposit. **How to arrive?** \- Link to **Waze** ([direct to Loox's office](https://bit.ly/4doim9I)): * **Parking**: there are 2 paid parking lots - [“Habursa”](https://maps.app.goo.gl/z7xf1sEjChcmnQUw6) \- Tuval St\. 23 Ramat\-Gan and [“Hayahalom Parking Central Park”](https://maps.app.goo.gl/UjV53KayfnVijCMD7) \- Tuval St\. 21 Ramat\-Gan * **Train**: 5 minutes walk from Savidor station \*\* Those arriving with a scooter/bicycle must arrive with a lock to tie them outside the tower, two-wheelers are not allowed in the building. **—------------------------------------------------------------------------------** **If you have any question please contact us:** **TestIL group \|* [Nitzan@itcb.org.il](Nitzan@itcb.org.il) *\| Nitzan 052\-6718757** **To summarize the meeting and to discuss the issues raised: [http://bit.ly/TestIL-FB](http://bit.ly/TestIL-FB)** **Find us in Telegram [http://bit.ly/Test_IL-Teleg](http://bit.ly/Test_IL-Teleg)** **—------------------------------------------------------------------------------**

**Talk Description** Coming soon **Agenda:** 7:00pm - Opening announcements 7:10pm - Main Topic 7:50pm - Q&A

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Most people use AI like a search box: they type one sentence, hope for the best, and get frustrated when the answer is generic, wrong, or useless. But getting better results from tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other AI systems is not about memorizing magic prompts. It is about learning how to give the AI better context. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll break down how to make AI dramatically more useful by improving the way you communicate with it. You’ll learn how to give clearer instructions, provide examples, set constraints, ask for better output formats, and use follow-up questions to turn a mediocre answer into a genuinely useful one. We’ll cover practical techniques you can use immediately for work, learning, writing, coding, planning, research, and everyday problem solving. We’ll also touch on why these same ideas show up in more advanced AI systems, including RAG, agents, evaluations, and AI workflows. No technical background required. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and maybe one real task you wish AI was better at helping you with. **What you’ll learn:** * Why “better prompting” is really about better context * How to structure requests so AI gives more useful answers * How to use examples, constraints, and output formats * How to iterate when the first answer is not good enough * How these skills connect to more advanced AI workflows This meetup is for anyone who wants to move beyond basic ChatGPT usage and start getting more practical value out of AI. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
