Agentic coding promises self-healing tests, automated reviews, and code at record speed. But what happens to software quality when no one questions what's actually being tested against anymore? A wake-up call from the conference circuit.

What if an AI agent could not only write code but also verify its functionality? QF-Test, the professional UI test automation tool from Quality First Software (QFS), provides a clear solution with its ready-to-use, staged approach to agentic testing.

Software teams invest significant effort in writing test cases — but without versioning, that effort can quickly unravel. In this podcast episode, Ashlea and Caroline break down what versioning is, why it matters, and how to get started.

Agentic coding promises drastically faster software development—but without adapting the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), organizations risk quality degradation and integration chaos. Why the V-Model is making a surprising comeback in the age of agentic development, and how quality gates, traceability, and a new understanding of engineering make all the difference.

AI tools promise fast test automation — but without a solid test strategy, clean architecture, and strong engineering expertise, they lead to unstable tests, rising maintenance costs, and uncontrolled sprawl. This article explains why AI is an amplifier, not a substitute for a methodical approach and sound structural design.

Quality Engineering is far more than a modern buzzword: it is a mindset, a way of thinking, and a structured approach to ensuring software quality in a sustainable, scalable, and cost-effective manner. While traditional software testing often still focuses primarily on identifying deviations between expected and actual results, Quality Engineering pursues a different objective: quality is not created through control at the end of the process, but by being deliberately designed from the very beginning. This article demonstrates how this approach can be put into practice.

Many software organizations still rely on a familiar but deeply flawed measure of QA performance: the number of defects the QA team discovers. At first glance, this seems intuitive. If QA finds a lot of defects, they must be doing a thorough job. If they find only a few, perhaps they aren’t testing well enough. But this line of thinking is not only incorrect; it actively harms product quality, distorts priorities, and prevents organizations from understanding the true value that modern QA provides.

Digital accessibility is becoming increasingly important. Companies that make their websites and applications accessible not only comply with legal requirements, but also contribute to a fairer society and increase their business success. mgm supports this with innovative testing methods that streamline the implementation of accessibility. But how exactly does testing work at mgm, and what are the success stories?
