Migrating a NeoLoad Project to OctoPerf With an AI Agent

Migrating a load testing project is rarely hard. It is long, and easy to abandon halfway. OctoPerf 17 ships a NeoLoad migration playbook for AI agents. Real prompts, real output, project downloadable. Target: JPetStore, our public MyBatis demo shop. Every step is reproducible. One User Path, split Init / Actions / End, six containers walking a purchase. Around them: Download it to follow along.

OctoPerf v17: A New Foundation for Test Results

OctoPerf 17.0.0 is available, on the SaaS platform and for On-Premise installations. It rebuilds how test results are stored and read, upgrades Playwright, and considerably extends what an AI agent can do through the OctoPerf MCP server. One thing to know before you upgrade. A result recorded before this version must be updated before its report shows data again. Nothing is lost, and the update runs on its own the first time you open the report.

How We Use AI to Smoke Test True Production Insights

Every testing vendor says "AI-powered" now. Fewer of them can show you the actual verification pipeline underneath that claim: what gets checked, what gets trusted without checking, and what happens the moment something breaks. This is that pipeline, as I run it against True Production Insights, formerly known as TrueTest, every time we ship a change to it.

What Is Playwright? A Comprehensive Guide to Modern Testing

Playwright has gone from a browser automation library most QA teams had never heard of to one of the most-searched testing frameworks in the industry, and interest keeps climbing. If you're evaluating it for your team, comparing it to Selenium or Cypress, or just trying to understand what the interest is about, this guide covers the fundamentals: what Playwright actually is, how it works, what it's used for, and where to go next once you're ready to dig into best practices. THE SHORT ANSWER.

Playwright Best Practices: A Practical Guide to Reliable Test Automation

Playwright makes it easy to get a test running quickly. It's harder to keep a whole suite of Playwright tests reliable six months later, once your app has changed, your team has grown, and nobody quite remembers why a particular test is flaky three days a week. If you're new to Playwright, our guide to what Playwright is and how it works is a good place to start first.

AI-Driven Cross-Platform Testing: A Smarter Path for Enterprise QA

Testing across web, mobile, and performance layers has become one of the hardest problems in enterprise software delivery. Teams juggle fragile scripts, siloed tools, and mounting maintenance work that slows every release. AI cross-platform testing changes that equation, and Perforce Autonomous Testing puts it within reach. In this post, you will learn what AI-driven cross-platform testing is, why it matters for QA leaders, and how Perforce Autonomous Testing works from setup to execution.

How Perforce Built an AI Agent Orchestrator for Code Review, QA, and Bug Fixes

In April 2026, when our Perforce engineering team was introduced to Claude, my team didn't jump straight into using it. We sat down, mapped our entire development lifecycle, and asked one focused question: Where does AI create the highest impact for us, specifically?

Get more control over AI Test Case Generation in Xray

Writing Tests from Requirements often starts with the same decision: how many scenarios does this change actually need? The number of Tests needed for a Requirement depends on the behavior it describes. A small change may require only a few Tests, while a feature with several acceptance criteria, user roles, and possible outcomes may need a broader set. AI Test Case Generation in Xray now lets testers account for that difference before generation begins.
