An Intellyx BrainCandy Brief
Developers have a hard enough time keeping up with the high-velocity demands of coding integration and business logic elements for highly distributed modern applications within continuous delivery release cycles, much less ‘shifting left’ to test their own software early and often.
Rather than building bespoke test dashboards or workflow interfaces for test management and execution, Sapient.ai solves the test authoring conundrum by inspecting code and generating positive and negative unit test cases, with matching mocks and stubs, through a plug-in within the developer’s IDE, since that is where they already spend the majority of their time.
After looking at the test co-pilot’s AI-based cases and instrumentation, developers can further customize test parameters and regressions to meet functional requirements. Resulting test cases, documentation and suites are human-readable and reusable within most other test automation and CI/CD tools.
