Kevin Surace, co-founder and CTO of Appvance
Appvance makes a platform called Appvance IQ, or AIQ for short. The platform is all-encompassing – web, API, native mobile, functional, compatibility, performance, load, and security tests. It becomes a centerpiece of your quality initiative.
We break test creation into two buckets.
- Low code/no code ML-driven Test Designer
- AI-based Autonomous Testing
In Test Designer, you have a world-class rapid script creator that uses English or JavaScript to write tests at the UX and API levlevelsnd; it’s compatible with every major UI library like React and Angular. We Peopleeate base-level scripts theon ir first day 20X faster than writing in Selenium. Test Designer alone garners a 300% productivity improvement across the QA effort (dev or QA engineers).

AI-based Autonomous testing is four years old and augments specific use cases. You simin an AI engine to act in certain ways with your web or mobile apps. Once it has learned what is important to you, it builds a baseline of your application, and then on each new build, it will look for bugs, differences, issues, faand failed validations. It is data-driven or will create its own, generating 100thousands tests in minutes. In addition, it can simulate the flows of real user activities. Everyone who is using this says it’s a game-changer for quality. Find up to 10X more bugs with 98% less effort.

According to a recent Forrester survey, quality continues to be a priority and the primary metric for measuring the success of software deliveries. With the continued pressure to release software faster and with fewer defects, it’s not just about speed — it’s about delivering quality at a rate.
Managers must ask themselves if they are confident in the quality of the applications being delivered by their teams. Continuous quality is necessary for every organization to efficiently reduce the risk of costly operational outages and accelerate time-to-market.
A reliable and maintainable automated testing strategy. W is critical to reaching your quality targets when computerized tests can be easily created and maintained; your team can focus on the overall quality of the application and verify the use cases rather than the test scripts themselves.

Clinton Sprauve, director of Product Marketing at Tricentis
Agile and DevOps have made Continuous Testing essential. Yet, software testing is still dominated by legacy tools and outdated processes—which don’t meet the needs of today’s digital transformation initiatives.
With Tricentis Tosca, customers can achieve over 90% test automation and “shift left” testing much earlier in the software development life cycle. Also, enterprises today still perform over 80% of their testing manually—mostly at the UI layer. As a result, testing occurs late in the software development life cycle, leading to high costs, inefficiency, and delayed innovation.
One distinctive Tricentis innovation is Vision AI, a next-generation AI-driven test automation technology that allows teams to automate UI test cases independent of the underlying technology.
Through machine learning, Vision AI sees and steers any UI just like a human user, making your automation but future-proof as adaptable as the human brain. If you can see it, Vision AI can automate it. This includes anything from an app using now-deprecated technologies to using emerging technologies o apps you access remotely. You can even start building test automation from mockups or whiteboard drawings. This brings a new meaning to test-driven development.
Another key advantage of the Tricentis Continuous Testing platform is that it helps enterprise organizations break through the automation barrier. Companies take automation further by using our complete platform for continuous testing across their UIs, back end, and even their data. With They achieve scalable, sustainable success with an extensive set of integrated tools for designing, optimizing, and maintaining resilient automation, the
