Private AI is emerging as a strong alternative for teams that need the power of AI without compromising data privacy or compliance. This session explores how local LLMs can support software development and test automation when cloud-based tools are not an option. Using setups like Ollama with models such as Qwen 2.5 and integrations like the Continue plugin, the talk demonstrates how secure, on-device AI can accelerate tasks like BDD creation, automation scripting, and performance testing.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation can sound convincing while still being wrong. This session focuses on moving beyond surface-level metrics and turning stochastic AI outputs into evidence-backed, verifiable results. It explores how to test the entire RAG pipeline, from ingestion and indexing to retrieval, grounding, and answerability, ensuring every response is traceable to the right source, policy, and user context.

Everyone is talking about Claude Code, but few people understand the machinery running in the background. Today, we’re opening up the terminal to see how Anthropic’s coding agent manages state, runs tests, and fixes its own bugs. From the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to its unique React-based terminal UI, find out what makes Claude Code the most "senior" feeling AI assistant on the market.

While analyzing network traffic, we found huge amounts of telemetry including chat snippets, being sent to statsig.anthropic.com. The irony? Statsig was recently acquired by OpenAI. In this video, we use proxymock to intercept the traffic and show you exactly what’s being sent from your terminal to Anthropic (and technically, OpenAI’s infrastructure).

Katalon’s AI approach is different because it builds on tools teams already use, adds AI without forcing process changes, and introduces novel capabilities like generating tests directly from real user behavior. It also applies AI across the entire testing lifecycle, creating a more complete and unified solution than most tools offer. — Coty Rosenblath, Chief Technology Officer at Katalon Follow Katalon for more insights in our series!
