Artificial Intelligence Methods for Optimization of the Software Testing Process
Author: Sahar Tahvili
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0323912826
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Artificial Intelligence Methods for Optimization of the Software Testing Process: With Practical Examples and Exercises presents different AI-based solutions for overcoming the uncertainty found in many initial testing problems. The concept of intelligent decision making is presented as a multi-criteria, multi-objective undertaking. The book provides guidelines on how to manage diverse types of uncertainty with intelligent decision-making that can help subject matter experts in many industries improve various processes in a more efficient way. As the number of required test cases for testing a product can be large (in industry more than 10,000 test cases are usually created). Executing all these test cases without any particular order can impact the results of the test execution, hence this book fills the need for a comprehensive resource on the topics on the how's, what's and whys. To learn more about Elsevier's Series, Uncertainty, Computational Techniques and Decision Intelligence, please visit this link: https://www.elsevier.com/books-and-journals/book-series/uncertainty-computational-techniques-and-decision-intelligence - Presents one of the first empirical studies in the field, contrasting theoretical assumptions on innovations in a real industrial environment with a large set of use cases from developed and developing testing processes at various large industries - Explores specific comparative methodologies, focusing on developed and developing AI-based solutions - Serves as a guideline for conducting industrial research in the artificial intelligence and software testing domain - Explains all proposed solutions through real industrial case studies

Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
The book "Accelerating Software Quality: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in the Age of DevOps" is a complete asset for software developers, testers, and managers that are on their journey to a more mature DevOps workflow, and struggle with better automation and data-driven decision making. DevOps is a mature process across the entire market, however, with existing Non-AI/ML technologies and models, it comes short in expediting release cycle, identifying productivity gaps and addressing them. This book, that was implemented by myself with the help of leaders from the DevOps and test automation space, is covering topics from basic introduction to AI and ML in software development and testing, implications of AI and ML on existing apps, processes, and tools, practical tips in applying commercial and open-source AI/ML tools within existing tool chain, chat-bots testing, visual based testing using AI, automated security scanning for vulnerabilities, automated code reviews, API testing and management using AI/ML, reducing effort and time through test impact analysis (TIA), robotic process automation (RPA), AIOps for smarter code deployments and production defects prevention, and many more.When properly leveraging such tools, DevOps teams can benefit from greater code quality and functional and non-functional test automation coverage. This increases their release cycle velocity, reduces noise and software waste, and enhances their app quality.The book is divided into 3 main sections: *Section 1 covers the fundamentals of AI and ML in software development and testing. It includes introductions, definitions, 101 for testing AI-Based applications, classifications of AI/ML and defects that are tied to AI/ML, and more.*Section 2 focuses on practical advises and recommendations for using AI/ML based solutions within software development activities. This section includes topics like visual AI test automation, AI in test management, testing conversational AI applications, RPA benefits, API testing and much more.*Section 3 covers the more advanced and future-looking angles of AI and ML with projections and unique use cases. Among the topics in this section are AI and ML in logs observability, AIOps benefits to an entire DevOps teams, how to maintain AI/ML test automation, Test impact analysis with AI, and more.The book is packed with many proven best practices, real life examples, and many other open source and commercial solution recommendations that are set to shape the future of DevOps together with ML/AI
