Measuring the Impact of AI in QA and Automation | Jaydeep Chakrabarty | Testflix 2025

In this fireside chat with Jaydeep, we’ll dive into how AI is changing the way we measure success in both QA processes and live generative AI bots. On the QA side, we’ll look at cycle time reduction—the “time goalie” metric that shows how quickly we move from discovering a bug to fixing it. We’ll also talk about predictive quality accuracy, which shifts QA from being reactive to proactive by predicting which code changes are most likely to introduce bugs. And of course, we’ll touch on test creation velocity—how much faster teams are able to create meaningful automation with AI’s support.

Can you share what challenge the customer was facing before finding Katalon?

Many customers were struggling with BDD-style test processes — writing structured, English-language scripts that business and tech teams could agree on but couldn’t easily automate. Before Katalon, they lacked a smooth way to turn those scripts or raw requirements into automated tests, which Katalon (and AI features like Studio Assist) finally made efficient. — Coty Rosenblath, Chief Technology Officer at Katalon.

What Is Baseline Testing? Meaning, Examples & Use Cases

Every software change answers one simple question: Did something break? Baseline testing exists to answer it with confidence. Teams often ship regressions simply because they lack a reliable reference to compare against. In modern software testing, a baseline provides that reference point and helps teams understand change without slowing down delivery.

Exploring Rails Action Cable with Solid Cable

Real-time features are becoming increasingly important in web applications, but not every Rails developer is familiar with Action Cable, the framework's built-in WebSocket library. Rails Action Cable has long supported web sockets, but comes with some additional complexity. Rails 8 introduces Solid Cable, a new database-backed adapter for Action Cable that eliminates the need for Redis. In this guide, I'll walk you through Action Cable by way of Solid Cable and show you how to build a real-time feature.

The Embedded BI Advantage: Why On-Premises Analytics Beats Third-Party BI for Data Security

Corporate concerns about entrusting sensitive data to third-party platforms keep many CTOs awake at night. Every time data leaves your infrastructure for a bolted-on BI tool, you're gambling with control. The stakes? Regulatory compliance, competitive advantage, and customer trust. Deploying a business analytics solution while keeping data safe and compliant often involves choosing between BI solutions that are either “bolted-on” or “embedded”.

Top Sandbox Platforms for AI Code Execution in 2026

In 2026, as AI models increasingly generate, refactor, and deploy code on their own, developers face a new challenge: how to safely run code they didn’t write. Sandboxes have become the backbone of this new workflow because they are lightweight, secure environments that let teams test, validate, and monitor code without risking production systems.

Security considerations when choosing an embedded analytics provider

October 2025, Paris. Thieves dressed as construction workers break into the Louvre and steal eight pieces of the French Crown Jewels valued at approximately €88 million. The robbery took place in broad daylight, and lasted less than eight minutes. As of the time of writing, only one of the jewels was recovered, a crown belonging to Napoleon III's wife Eugénie, which the thieves dropped in the street as they fled.
