How Can Artificial Intelligence be Used for Software Testing

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the process where computer systems can perform tasks that typically humans perform including research, decision making etc. The computer systems can also be trained to solve problems and all of the above occurs by training the computer systems in studying data and patterns in the same.

AI is a broad umbrella and under it, there are different categories like robotics and related applications, machine learning, natural language processing etc. As a leading software testing company in UK and software development company in USA, GRhombustech brings rich expertise to the field. Based on our experience and observations, some of the ways AI can help achieve better results in software testing are

1. Automation of processes

Test cases can be automated by self-learning machine algorithms. Further, with more machine learning, test scenarios themselves can be identified and the system can also come up with proactive suggestions. Certain repetitive and time consuming test tasks can be readily automated and such tests can provide a wealth of information on software and code stability.

2. Focus Areas

With the analysis of historical data by AI systems, critical focus areas can be easily identified. This will help to proactively fill the gaps and undertake better testing. Thus, the weakest link in the chain will be identified easily and covered, thereby ensuring a stable release. Test cases can also be grouped based on impact and relevance. Thus, the number of test cases can be optimized without any compromise on the integrity of the testing process.

3. Analysis of test logs and associated data

AI can analyze the test logs to identify patterns and anomalies that may not be noticed during a manual analysis. This is especially true in the case of complex software products where the links may not be directly evident. This helps in identifying and resolving issues more quickly.

4. Security perspective

AI can also make specific analysis of code and test software from a security and vulnerability perspective. As the best cybersecurity company in UAE, GRhombus has a variety of tools and techniques in the domain of cyber security.

5. Simulations

AI can simulate user behavior to test the software under different scenarios. By using techniques like reinforcement learning, this will help identify trends and bring a more real-world use case to the testing perspective in the test bench itself!

6. Quality

AI can integrate in a CI/CD (Continuous integration/Continuous Delivery) pipeline. This allows software testing throughout the process and thus ensures quality throughout the process. Defects reaching the live/production scenario are thus minimized.

The main advantages of using AI for testing are:

  1. Less errors due to human fatigue
  2. Scalable solution
  3. Ability to handle different complexity levels of testing simultaneously
  4. Enlarged scope and coverage of testing
  5. Faster testing and result delivery without compromise on the integrity of testing
  6. Precise testing in identified areas
  7. Predictive analytics can be incorporated

What is Cryptocurrency and What is Its Impact on the Market?

Money is fundamental to human life and economic growth. Money allows for the exchange of goods and services and quantifying them in a tangible fashion. Similarly, the concept of money helps in storing wealth and allows for valuation and comparison. It greatly expands the scope of trade and promotes uniformity in transactions whether across the border or within the country.

With the growth of technology, the concept of money and technology have emerged to create a new avatar of cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrency is a type of digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography for security. Unlike normal currency, there is no central bank issuing the currency. A distributed ledger and blockchain technology is used to validate the transactions. The first cryptocurrency to emerge was Bitcoin. Since then, many cryptocurrencies have emerged. The value of different cryptocurrencies is calculated differently and there is no uniformity in the way they operate, as each currency has its own list of conditions. Given that this is a new area, the impact on the market is an interesting study. As a leading software developer in USA, GRhombustech has given basic inputs in this blog. We would always advice the readers to do complete research and also consult finance professionals before undertaking any investments in crypto.

1. Market Volatility

Cryptocurrencies are known for their extreme volatility in value. Prices can skyrocket to unprecedented heights or plummet in a matter of hours. Thus, returns can be high or low and there is no assured stability in the way things operate.

2. Tax challenges

Many governments do not recognize cryptocurrency as a legal form of currency. Further, many governments have enacted strict laws to curb investments in cryptocurrency or brought in taxation laws to tax the gain on capital etc. While there have been cryptocurrency exchanges and investment products like normal markets, they are mostly not completely recognized.

3. Regulatory Framework

The rise of cryptocurrencies has posed significant regulatory challenges. Because they can be used anonymously, they have been linked to illegal activities. Since the concept can be easily misused, many governments are wary and a complete framework is yet to be created. Further, while crypto operates on a global level, the same level of understanding has not yet been achieved between financial institutions, banks etc. This has made crypto a legal and regulatory soup!

4. Disruption of Traditional Banking

Cryptocurrencies can potentially disrupt traditional banking and financial systems. They offer a way to transfer funds directly between parties without the need for a trusted third party like a bank. However, crypto currencies can be manipulated and there are frequent news about hacks and attacks on exchanges. Hence, the reliability factor is less.
