If you’re running Microsoft Dynamics 365 and relying on RSAT (Regression Suite Automation Tool) to keep your test automation ticking, there’s a deadline you cannot afford to ignore: RSAT support ends on 15 May 2027. That’s not far away, and the decisions you make now will shape how painlessly your QA practice survives the transition. So let’s talk about what comes next and why the answer is more interesting than you might expect.

AI-assisted builds grew 164x in a year. The rate teams ship to users fell by a fifth. Arpad Kun, VP of Engineering and Infrastructure at Bitrise, on the gap that opened up in between, and what his team built to close it.

Every CIO has a slide deck full of AI pilots by now. A chatbot that answers FAQs. A copilot that drafts emails. An agent that summarizes meetings and files the notes nobody reads. The demos get applause in the boardroom, the budget gets approved for “phase two,” and then largely nothing happens. The pilot quietly lives on in a sandbox, forever 80% done, forever six weeks from launch. If that sounds familiar, you are not behind. You are, statistically, in the majority.

In the first experiment, I wanted a baseline: if an AI coding agent gets the same production signal a human would get, can it fix bugs in a codebase it has never seen? Yes, but only when I gave it better context. With only an alert, the agent passed 51% of the runtime tests. When I added captured traffic, the actual request and response for the failing call, it climbed to 77%. This post is the second pass.

AI is transforming industries at an unprecedented pace. Boards are demanding AI roadmaps, CTOs are accelerating digital transformation, and each of those initiative sits on the same foundation: data. Here’s an uncomfortable truth: many enterprises can’t tell you whether that foundation is solid. They hope and maybe even assume it is, but they can’t be certain if they aren’t testing it.

At Sapphire 2026, SAP introduced its latest vision for customers: the “Autonomous Enterprise,” a new model of business where AI agents run core ERP processes, from HR to finance and beyond. Reimagining the modern SAP enterprise also means reimagining its tools. At this year’s event, SAP renamed the Integrated Toolchain to the SAP Agent-led toolchain, revamping its role for a more intelligent enterprise.
