+++ WOPEE - Workshop

Learn how to effortlessly unleash the power of autonomous testing in your software development process.

Discover how to seamlessly integrate the Autonomous Testing Platform into your CI/CD pipelines and watch it work wonders for you.

In this workshop, you'll witness the autonomy bot in action as it uncovers critical issues in your app without requiring any scripting. You'll also see how easy it is to enhance your existing automated tests with additional superpowers, all within your beloved testing frameworks.

Gain firsthand experience and determine the scenarios where autonomous testing can best serve your needs, and where traditional approaches may still be warranted.

Although the workshop is based on our Autonomous Testing Platform (wopee.io), we'll explore principles and ideas that can be easily implemented in your current automation testing frameworks.

Your guide for the workshop is Jan Beránek, a seasoned software development and quality assurance professional. With his extensive experience, Jan has helped numerous teams increase efficiency and quality while embracing the agile approach and innovative solutions.

+++ askui - Build UI workflows that run on every platform

askui is the first text-to-automation platform that understands UIs and their context through advanced AI models.

By controlling operating systems, askui provides a unique and cost-effective solution to automation challenges, transforming natural language into UI automation. Build UI workflows that run on every platform and save 90% of your time.

+++ Smartesting - Tap the last remaining source of productivity

“We do our test design in JIRA.” Sorry, but NO! Test design is far more than typing text into predefined fields. Even if you automate your tests straight away, test design happens… in your mind.

While the rest of the test process is eagerly optimized, this crucial activity still lacks tool support. Too bad, because 20% efficiency gains are easily achieved with Yest, the tester’s IDE.
