Exploratory Testing with AI

Talkat TestMu Conference 2025 · 2025-08-19..08-21· [ai-assisted-development, testing]

AI generates focused session-based testing charters and prioritized test lists in seconds, uses Claude to suggest API and UI charters, and auto-creates JSON inputs and Playwright Python code that often needs adjustments. It can generate Playwright tests from manual exploration and refactor to Page Object Model to fit existing frameworks, and it drafts reproduction scripts and expected-response fixtures for Star Trek API examples. Human judgment validates flaky outputs, filters dynamic fields, and decides what to lock into regression.
