New Blog Post! My core AI quality methodology
It's the full AI Quality Funnel.
The 6-step "Tactical Funnel" (The Kayak)
The "Strategic Loops" (The Ship)
This is the map for moving towards a resilient testing framework.

Are you building an AI Quality "Kayak" or "Ship"?
Kayak: A set of tactics for now.
Ship: A strategic framework for the future.
This post is the core of my AI testing methodology.

This week's new blog post is a summary of the 1-hour concepts from "Beyond The Basics" AI testing webinar. Or you can just watch the recording there.
It's a great 101 for building your first AI test methodology.

Your "Golden Datasets" are stale.
A response that was ok 6 months ago, is not good enough now. Our test suite must evolve.
This "Evolving Scorecard" is a core concept we're covering in the free webinar, Dec 3.

The "beyond the basics" webinar showed you how to build a Golden Dataset.
The "AI Judge" can help to automate scoring at scale.
For a real AI quality strategy, you need both.

Your tests didn't change. Your code didn't change. But your AI feature is misbehaving.
Welcome to "model drift".
You need a long-haul strategy. A drift detector.
Learn how to build one in my free webinar. Dec-3.

Speaking online this Wed (Nov 19) with Testomat.io!
We're talking "Exploratory Testing with AI."
Can AI be our "pair testing" buddy? Can it help us find new risks?
It's live and practical. Register:

If AI is so smart, why can't it tell me how much I can trust it?
My new blog post is a deep dive into the "AI Judge" technique.
Learn how to use a model to automate your "fuzzy" quality checks and finally scale your AI regression suite.

A Strategist has a process for evolving their "definition of good" as the models and requirements change.
This is a key "Process Principle" we're covering in our Dec 3rd webinar.

Python devs!
Join me at xtremePython (Nov 18) for a 25-min, no-hype session on "Smarter API Testing with AI."
We'll skip the "hello world" and focus on practical code: scaffolding client wrappers, generating complex data, and refactoring legacy tests.

Europe! This is tomorrow (Nov 11).
I'm speaking at the Continuous Testing meetup about "API Testing with AI."
We'll cover how AI can help with the real challenges: data prep & complex setup.
Free & virtual. Join us!

The CI pipeline is a crime scene.
Join me for a hands-on "CSI: Flaky Tests" investigation at the TestIL meetup on Nov 18th.
We'll dust for fingerprints in the code and expose the root causes of instability.

Are you building an AI testing 'kayak' or 'ship'?
A 'kayak' is for a short voyage. A 'ship' is a long-haul strategy.
My new blog post on why you must become a 'Strategist-Captain' drops tomorrow.
