The first end-to-end AI test agent pioneers a new era in quality engineering

29-08-2024 | Lambda | Test & Measurement

LambdaTest has released KaneAI, the world's first end-to-end software AI Test Agent. It is a unique approach to authoring, debugging, and evolving end-to-end tests using natural language that will revolutionise how teams create, manage, and execute automated tests.

Automation testing has long been a critical part of software development but often comes with significant challenges. Test automation frequently needs to catch up to development sprints, with brittle tests requiring constant maintenance. Even low-code/no-code solutions have a learning curve and often start to break down at scale, making it difficult for test automation setup to keep pace with evolving testing needs.

The solution is a first-of-its-kind AI Test Assistant with industry-first AI features like test authoring, management and debugging capabilities built from the ground up for high-speed Quality Engineering teams. It enables users to create and evolve complex test cases using natural language, significantly reducing the time and expertise required to get started with test automation. Since the tests employ Natural Language, different personnel can participate in the test-case creation process.

Combined with built-in features like intelligent test planning, AI-powered test healing, and advanced conditional assertions, the solution supports complex workflows and ensures comprehensive test coverage.

Unlike traditional low-code/no-code solutions that hit scalability limits, KaneAI provides two-way test editing features that allow users to either author in code or in Natural Language. It also allows multi-language code export across all major frameworks together with unique Instruction-to-Code and Code-to-Instruction translation features. This allows effortless maintenance of tests for scale and ensures that even the most intricate testing demands are met.

The solution also revolutionises debugging with AI-powered test observability and real-time RCA capabilities. This helps large-scale distributed engineering teams minimise application downtime and accelerate release cycles without compromising product quality.

The solution also integrates seamlessly with existing workflows, supporting popular tools such as Jira, Slack, GitHub Actions, and Microsoft Teams, making it an invaluable addition to any testing toolkit.

"Over the past six years, we have listened to feedback from the users on how to solve their testing challenges. KaneAI is the result of our team's innovative approach to address that. The engineering and product team has spent over an year to build this revolutionising product and pushed the boundaries of what is possible in quality engineering. They ensured that every aspect of KaneAI could meet the daily real-world challenges that testing teams face. This journey was about developing an AI-powered test agent and reimagining what test automation could be," said Asad Khan, co-founder and CEO at LambdaTest.

"KaneAI exemplifies LambdaTest's unwavering commitment to revolutionising quality engineering. Having led technology firms for two decades, I have seen software development teams struggling to keep up with the fast pace of change and remain agile as they deliver top-tier products. KaneAI is a game-changer and addresses large-scale challenges for quality engineering teams. Through this product, LambdaTest disrupts the legacy testing ecosystem. NLP based test authoring fundamentally breaks through the traditional testing workflows and empowers product managers, Developers and testers to seamlessly integrate continuous testing into the DevOps workflows.," Sandeep Johri, CEO of Checkmarx stated.
