Digital Twins Gone Wild: My Unexpected AI Doppelgänger

I recently tried using AI to create a digital twin of myself. I uploaded a photo, expecting a futuristic, slightly improved version of me… and what did I get in return? A picture of Kim Jong Un. Clearly, AI has a sense of humor—or a very different definition of “twin.” Forget Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito.

What kinds of cross-team coordination became important to do the implementation?

Successful implementation required close coordination across three groups: stakeholders who needed visibility into progress, the hands-on implementation team who would use the AI tool, and Katalon’s core engineering team, especially testers and product owners, to provide immediate feedback that shaped improvements and roadmap decisions. — Mush Honda, Chief Quality Architect at Katalon Follow Katalon for more insights in our series!

API Automation Testing: A Practical Guide For 2026

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) power nearly every modern digital experience, from mobile apps and online payments to AI-driven services and real-time data processing. As software systems increasingly rely on microservices and distributed architectures, the number of API interactions continues to grow, making reliability and performance more critical than ever.

Streamline Code Testing with Proxymock

Tired of complex setups and running out of memory just to test one component? Learn how to use Proxymock (a FREE tool) to solve your biggest testing headache: component isolation! This demo shows you how to record and mock interactions across a complex React, Golang, and PostgreSQL stack, allowing you to find bugs before they ever hit production. In This Demo: This strategy lets you easily isolate components, simulate customer behavior, and ensure quality with lightning-fast local testing.

How to Test Your React Frontend When the Backend Is Offline #speedscale #frontend #backend #coding

Software development is hard, especially when you have to ensure every component works together; it's an integration maze! And running a full stack (like React, Go, and Postgres) on your dev machine often means one thing: running out of memory! The Fix: We'll show you how to use Proxymock to record your components, effectively letting you run the frontend (or any component) completely isolated.

Modernizing Oracle testing: 2 organizations, 2 approaches

When Oracle updates hit, many IT teams brace for impact. Backlogs swell, manual checks slow releases, and a patch that should take hours can stretch into days. For enterprise teams running Oracle at scale, outdated testing tools can be inefficient, costly, and difficult to manage. At Oracle AI World, two global organizations shared the stories of how they moved past those bottlenecks.

QA Test Scenarios: Definition, Examples & Free Excel Template

Most QA teams build and run test cases every sprint. But without a shared structure, tests get reactive, repetitive, or incomplete—leading to missed edge cases, duplicated effort, and late-cycle surprises. That’s where QA Test Scenarios come in. A test scenario maps out what you’re testing at a business flow level before you dive into writing test cases. It gives your team a clear, reusable view of what matters—so you test smarter, not just more.

How to Test Your React Frontend When the Backend Is Offline

Picture this: You’ve spent hours perfecting your React component. The animations are smooth, the responsive design works flawlessly, and you’re ready to test the user flow. You click “Submit” and… nothing happens. Or worse, you get a cryptic CORS error. The problem? Your backend isn’t running. Again.

AI and the senior tester: How seasoned QA pros can navigate and help define the future of quality engineering

AI’s impact on quality engineering has been widely discussed, with some predicting a crisis for software testers. The more dire forecasts have narrowed in on the junior tester, as some anticipate that AI’s ability to perform routine tasks will eliminate entry-level roles. As Tricentis has explored, AI will not replace junior testers but will rather remake their jobs, enabling them to engage in strategic work earlier in their careers. But what about the senior tester?
