The world of software testing isn’t slowing down anytime soon. Teams are releasing updates faster, systems are getting more complex, and users expect everything to “just work.” It’s a lot to juggle. The good news is that testing itself is evolving to meet those challenges. As we move into 2026, a few clear trends are starting to shape how QA teams think and operate. Here’s what’s on the horizon, and why it matters.

The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) introduced the CPS 234 prudential standard to set a clear benchmark for cybersecurity resilience. Complying with CPS 234 is a key step for organisations to protect sensitive information and build trust. As businesses rely more on data-driven operations, protecting customers’ information — especially in non-production environments that are often overlooked — is more important than ever.

I just finished building Speedscale’s eBPF-based component to capture and analyze network traffic in a Kubernetes cluster, and it forced me to confront some uncomfortable truths about observability. While there were certainly some challenges along the way, particularly in dealing with Go applications, the approach was relatively straightforward.

AI code generation is rapidly evolving from a novelty into a key building block of modern software development. According to the Tricentis 2025 Quality Transformation Report, 82% of software professionals are excited about AI agents handling repetitive development tasks, and 84% believe AI will help teams meet increasingly compressed deadlines. Tools like GitHub Copilot and Codex are driving this revolution, offering real-time suggestions and automating boilerplate work.

Most product teams today are very good at one thing: testing what happens when a user types a prompt. Hemraj Bedassee , Delivery Excellence Practitioner,

Software Development is progressing faster than ever, as software teams are now able to regularly release new features in cycles that often last a week to a day. As a result of this cycle, bug tracking and QA processes are sometimes not enough to prevent there from being bugs in place before a problem arises. When these bugs enter production, they cause a lot of frustration among users, downtime, and a large amount of time being spent trying to fix the problem which makes users angry.
