Quality Engineering with GenAI

AI basically is a tool. And this tool can serve many different purposes. One of

those purposes is supporting quality engineering and testing activities. In this part of the TMAP website you will find how GenAI can be used while performing a wide range of quality engineering and testing activities. 

With GenAI most people think of Large Language Models and Image generators.

And most people know one way to use these models:

1. Prompts

To work with a GenAI tool you need to provide a so-called prompt. Creating good prompts is an important skill for many people. A good prompt is structured using several elements. We use the CraftingAIprompts framework to create prompts. This framework is described on this website: www.craftingaiprompts.org

But there are more ways of using AI for quality engineering and testing:

2. GenAI based tools

Creating prompts is a labor-intensive and error-prone approach for repeating tasks. So for tasks that have to be done more often GenAI based tools are created that have a user-interface and (behind the screens) make use of pre-fab prompts.

An example of such GenAI based tool is Sogeti’s “GenAI Amplifier”.

• To see the tool in action, you can use the clickable demo here.
  

3. Agentic AI

GenAI based “agents” are autonomously operating bots that can perform specific predefined tasks without human intervention. These AI agents can operate individually but can also work together in a teams of AI agents.

Using GenAI to support QE&T tasks

The three ways of applying AI, as mentioned above, can all be used to support quality engineering and testing tasks.
In TMAP these tasks are grouped in quality engineering topics. On this page we give an example of a possible use case of applying GenAI for each of the topics.
