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)** **—------------------------------------------------------------------------------**
