    AI Can Generate 1,000 Tests—But Do They Actually Matter? | Ashok Thiruvengadam

    AI Can Generate 1,000 Tests—But Do They Actually Matter? | Ashok ThiruvengadamCan AI genuinely test software—or does it simply generate more testing activity?In this episode of the AIScento Podcast, host G. John Okoro speaks with Ashok Thiruvengadam, founder and CEO of STAG Software and co-founder of Pivotrics, about the future of software quality in the age of artificial intelligence.With more than 35 years of experience in software engineering and quality assurance, Ashok challenges the assumption that more automation, higher code coverage and hundreds of AI-generated test cases automatically produce better software.We explore:• What AI has genuinely changed about software testing• Why more test cases do not necessarily create greater confidence• Ashok’s HyBIST hypothesis-driven testing methodology• The difference between test automation and “smart probing”• How AI can serve as a testing thought partner• New risks created by generative AI, RAG and autonomous agents• Why software should be designed for testability from the beginning• The evolving role of human testers as investigators and quality strategists• What endurance cycling and ultrarunning can teach us about problem-solvingThe central message: AI can dramatically accelerate software testing, but speed and volume are not substitutes for curiosity, systems thinking and human judgment.What do you think? Can AI eventually take responsibility for software quality—or will human judgment always remain essential?Subscribe to the AIScento Podcast for conversations with the leaders shaping the future of AI, business and technology.🎥 AIScento Podcast on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCAsCmczqRflquH65mmbrOKirP2l_4XOj🎧 Listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/75HuRzTPK1e4iD2j2ehwAk?si=l0Ls5XG_QTm30U0mqzLaJwFollow AIScento and Auspicious AI & Blockchain:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuspiciousBlockchainLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/aiscento/#ArtificialIntelligence #SoftwareTesting #QualityAssurance #AItesting #SoftwareQuality #GenerativeAI #SmartQA #TestAutomation #TechnologyLeadership #AIScento
