According to the findings of the IBM Global AI Adoption Index 2022, nearly 80% of IT teams were either exploring AI or actively using it. Fast-forward to 2025, where AI adoption is key to enabling quality and scalability in software delivery, outdated testing methods will recede into obsolescence. As the digital environment evolves, testing frameworks must keep up to meet the quality assurance (QA) teams’ need for intelligence, adaptability, and forward-thinking approaches.
Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and IBM have confirmed that GenAI in software testing is rapidly gaining momentum worldwide. More and more organizations are calling for AI-driven solutions in quality engineering for faster releases, less manually led grunt work, and better product test coverage.
QualiZeal and Tricentis, two experts in Quality Engineering, join forces, leveraging industry-recognized products and deep-domain expertise in quality assurance to help enterprises achieve exceptional software quality using the full potential of AI. The collaboration enables advanced automation and AI-enabled testing that impacts long-term digital transformation initiatives. This article shows how QualiZeal and Tricentis’ partnership aids this shift through an AI-integrated approach to transforming test automation.
How AI Improves Quality Engineering
AI has been integrated into the business and IT value chain in several ways. Currently, where enterprises strive for a digital leg-up, Generative AI (GenAI) is readily adopted across broader AI goals, enterprise application migration and modernization projects, custom app development, and productivity enhancement areas. However, a significant proportion of businesses remain dedicated to traditional QA practices like manual testing and test automation that often accompany challenges such as:
1. Test Maintenance Overload
The more complex a software system gets, the longer it takes to maintain the previous test cases. Manual changes to the test scripts after each minor update often lead to delays and errors.
2. High Manual Effort
Manually creating and running test cases consumes QA resources, making it difficult for the team to expand or attempt innovations. The problem becomes more serious as applications grow larger.
3. Delayed Defect Detection
When a bug is discovered through usual testing, it often causes problems with other parts of the system or for end-users, resulting in higher fixes and a poor user experience.
How can AI’s strategic intelligence tackle these issues:
1. Run Tests Quickly
AI-powered testing tools can leverage capabilities like analyzing and interpreting user stories, understanding test requirements, and reviewing historical defects to generate test cases. Tricentis Tosca and QualiZeal’s QMentisAI are both AI-powered testing tools that enable organizations to reduce the time spent creating tests while maintaining their relevance and accuracy.
2. Better Decisions about What to Do First
QA teams can leverage AI capabilities to prioritize risk and usage while deciding the types of tests to perform. This simplifies testing core and influential parts first, using less time and energy without compromising quality.
3. Less Repeat Data and Better Testing
AI-driven automation and speed can be easily leveraged to spot matches in test cases and redundancies. At the same time, it can help proactively review test cases, allowing QA teams to avoid unwanted surprises that lead to counterproductive tasks and time usage to focus on significant problems and feel more confident with the release. AI is a strategic enabler for enterprises looking to become AI-first to avoid negative impacts on their business and investment. The consequences of untested AI systems can result in serious QA issues, creating biased systems with errors, inaccuracies, and misguided analytics. With diligent governance, risk management practices, and policies, leaders can use adequate guardrails to ensure ethical, responsible, and quality-led AI usage. The goal of QA is not to remove testers but to make QA more effective while making the most of the available resources.

The platform’s Human-in-the-Loop approach delivers the speed and efficiency of GenAI while empowering QE professionals to validate each output—ensuring accuracy and accountability before progressing to the next stage of the workflow.
Beyond automation, QMentisAI’s 18 advanced capabilities enable QA decision-making by guaranteeing impacts like a 60% accelerated testing lifecycle with up to 95% test accuracy and 90% more test coverage, leading to 3X time-to-market.
The Role of Tricentis and Its Copilot Solutions
Tricentis’ cutting-edge products for test automation, test management, mobile testing, data, quality intelligence, and more enable its enterprise clients to tackle testing bottlenecks and risks to ensure smooth and confident software releases. Its codeless, AI-driven testing solutions have demonstrated faster software delivery and reduced costs for enterprises on a digital transformation journey. Let us unveil its flagship, Tosca, and qTest Copilot.
Tosca Copilot: Intelligent Test Execution and Insights
The GenAI-powered test automation assistant, Tosca Copilot, helps testers and QA developers be more productive while using Tosca, saving time and costs. The solution leverages large language models (LLMs) and a chat interface to help users interact with simple language to find, understand, and optimize test assets. It makes test creation and control easier. Important features are:
- Natural Language TQL Generation: Testers can convert their ideas into plain English tests instead of working with complex scripts. The process becomes simpler, helping us develop tests more quickly.
- Test Case Explanation: Tosca Copilot simplifies test results so teams can understand why an issue occurred, accelerate issue resolution, and broaden the team’s knowledge.
qTest Copilot: Smarter Test Case Management
With qTest Copilot, testers and QA developers can leverage LLMs to write better test cases, improve coverage, and enhance user productivity and efficiency. qTest’s existing capabilities include test case generation based on requirements, and future capabilities will aid users in accessing test cases in the libraries and improve the reusability of those tests.
- Both Copilot tools help enterprise clients seeking GenAI tools to integrate into their existing testing lifecycles and software delivery projects by guaranteeing cost, time, and productivity benefits: Time savings with a 95% reduction of manual TQL writing. GenAI-driven automation simplifies testers’ jobs by freeing them from the time-consuming task of creating scripts.
- A 30% boost in productivity because automation takes over repetitive tasks. This enables QA teams to focus on critical analysis and spend less time on mundane activities. Their work is finished faster and with fewer mistakes.
- Reducing operational expenses associated with redundant operations can result in thousands of dollars in cost savings. The copilots help new users pick things up fast, allowing better utilization of testing resources.
Tricentis Copilot tools are a key part of the technical setup for enterprise AI test automation.
