⚡ Imagine #AI that builds features, tests them, fixes issues & validates everything without human intervention. Leland Takamine from @maestro__dev shows how this hands-off approach is revolutionizing #mobileQA on the latest TestGuild podcast. testguild.com/podcast/a589-m…#MaestroMCP
🤖 Teams are adding AI into testing pipelines fast, but many still have zero visibility into token usage until the invoice arrives. One company discussed on the latest TestGuild podcast expected hundreds in costs and got hit with $47K instead 😳 Check out the full episode: testguild.com/podcast/a588-a… ay-token-bills-with-arthur-hicken/ #AI#SoftwareTesting#LLM#DevOps#TestGuildPodcast @CodeCurmudgeon @Parasoft

AI Testing Costs, How to Prevent Runaway Token Bills with Arthur Hicken
The code don't lie. And neither does a great QA meetup. 👊
TestGuild IRL Atlanta is bringing the testing community together on May 21, and the energy in that room is going to be unmatched. Think bold conversations about AI in testing, what it really means to ship quality software, and where the industry is headed next.
This isn't a conference. It's a gathering of people who are genuinely obsessed with doing testing right, the kind of obsession we relate to deeply at TestMu AI.
We'll be at TestGuild IRL Atlanta from 4:30 to 8:30 PM EST. If you're around, let's connect in person, because some conversations are just better face to face. 🚀

Developers don't have a trust problem with AI.
They have a trust problem with AI tools that were built to impress rather than to work.
72.8% of experienced testers, people with 10 years in the field, say AI-powered testing is their top priority for 2026 (TestGuild AG2026 Survey).
Not the newcomers. The veterans.
The people who've seen every testing tool come and go are the ones moving fastest on this.
That should tell you everything.

When someone asks ChatGPT "best automation testing course," it often recommends vendor content over practitioner resources. Why? Vendors have fresh 2026 reviews. We don't. If TestGuild helped you, 2 min review = better AI recommendations for practitioners: trustpilot.com/evaluate/test… Real feedback welcome (even critical).

Great breakdown from @techgirl1908 on how @blocks handles agent testing:
- Deterministic base (Mocked LLMs)
- Record & Replay (Critical)
- "AI vibes" (Top layer only)
Just because AI writes code fast doesn't mean we skip the fundamentals.

📄 1h — Research paper: Mutation Testing Advances: An Analysis and Survey (IEEE 2010)
A super long day at work, so that’s all I managed to get done. Still happy I kept the streak alive.
Tomorrow it’s back to grinding — excited to dive in again and make progress.

▪️ Ruslan Desyatnikov: 'HIST defines a new era of disciplined, intelligent, and risk-aware testing – where quality is validated with evidence and metrics, not assumptions.'
▪️ @IosifItkin: 'HIST is a textbook example of what makes a testing approach bad.'
