AI test case generation tools are transforming how QA teams create, maintain, and execute tests by automating repetitive work and improving coverage. Teams that adopt AI for QA now will reduce manual test creation time while expanding their test coverage. Software testing has always been a balancing act between thoroughness and speed. You want comprehensive coverage, but you also want to ship features before your competitors do.

Gherkin syntax transforms software requirements into executable, human-readable test scenarios that both technical and business teams understand. Start with clear, behavior-focused scenarios and your test suite becomes a communication tool that actually gets used. Software teams waste countless hours translating business requirements into something developers can actually build. Miscommunication between stakeholders and technical teams leads to rework, missed deadlines, and features nobody asked for.

Unlock AI-powered insights in Salesforce by activating warehouse data with AI Columns in Fivetran Activations.

Modern teams need to move sensitive data from on-prem SQL Server into Salesforce safely and predictably. This guide explains how to design, implement, and operate a secure ETL that balances performance with controls. It is written for data engineers, platform owners, and security leads who support regulated workflows. You will learn core components, common pitfalls, architecture patterns, and a phased implementation plan with code examples.

If you’ve recently upgraded to Debian 13 (“Trixie”) or a newer version of Ubuntu and suddenly started seeing security warnings when running apt update (or apt update --audit), don’t worry. You didn’t do anything wrong. This is a side effect of a broader security change across modern Linux distributions. SHA-1 signatures are being deprecated, and repositories that still rely on them may now trigger warnings or audits.

AI now sits inside most software, whether teams planned for it or not. A recent report from Stanford HAI found that AI adoption jumped from 55 percent in 2023 to 78 percent in 2024.

Last Tuesday, we kicked off our first AI developer meetup of 2026 with a packed room and over 350 signups! This was our first content-focused event since organizing AI Engineer Paris 2025, and it was a great night bringing the AI dev community together to share ideas and learn from some of the most exciting builders in the space. Want to join next time? Follow our global events calendar to stay in the loop. Our meetup's theme was coding agents. We heard from speakers at Koyeb, OpenAI, and LangChain.

The next generation of debugging doesn’t depend exclusively on the quality of AI models, but it’s heavily dependent on feeding AI tools the context they need to be useful. AI coding assistants have transformed how we write code. For example, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and ChatGPT can generate Stripe integration boilerplate in seconds. They'll scaffold your payment flow, suggest error handling patterns, and even write unit tests.

Software development has evolved to a point where updates ship more frequently than ever – sometimes multiple times a week. But rapid releases demand equally fast validation. Traditional full regression cycles take too long and can block delivery, especially when only a small feature or module has changed. Delta testing addresses this challenge by testing just the updated areas of the product. It allows teams to maintain quality while delivering incremental improvements quickly.

Today, we're excited to announce Kong Mesh 2.13. Kong Mesh 2.13 delivers full support for Mesh Identity for Kubernetes and Universal mode. Plus, it's been designated as a Long Term Support release, with support for a total of 2 years. But first, what's Kong Mesh for the uninitiated?
