BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
Hiring more QA testers doesn't always fix buggy software. Pramin Pradeep, founder of BotGauge, explains how AI agents handle end-to-end testing so growing businesses can release new features with confidence.
In this episode:
- An e-commerce company had 25 QA testers and still sat at 56% test coverage, and Pramin explains why hiring 10 more people wasn't the answer.
- BotGauge's agents do about 80% of the testing work, and a forward deployed engineer covers the human 20% to keep the agents on track.
- Armando shares a checkout bug on a well-known kids' clothing site that stopped him from buying many times when he was signed in.
- Pramin's order for test coverage starts with critical user flows (about 95%), then positive and negative scenarios, then edge cases.
- If you rarely release updates and bugs aren't reaching your customers, Pramin says you probably don't need test automation yet.
