Testing Traditional AI: Deterministic Models and Data Quality in Practice
If you’ve spent the last two years drowning in GenAI hype, this post is the deep breath you’ve been waiting for. Most revenue-critical “AI” in production today still looks like deterministic or near-deterministic models and rules driving decisions like eligibility, pricing tiers, content classification, and fraud flags. And guess what? These systems are wonderfully testable—if […]
Beyond Testing: From Beta Fatigue to Beta Engagement
Most betas start strong but fizzle out before insights ever reach product teams. You’ve probably seen it: testers are enthusiastic in week one, Slack channels light up, reports flood in. But by week three, dashboards are quiet, bug reports are thin, and everyone’s whispering the dreaded question: “Was the beta even worth it?” The uncomfortable […]
Beyond Testing : Making Quality Visible to Executives
Bugs don’t impress CFOs and CEOs. Revenue saved does. Why Executives Don’t See the Value of Testing Ask any CFO or CEO what excites them more: “We achieved 90% test coverage” or “We saved $2.5M in customer churn last quarter”?The answer is obvious. The language of executives is revenue, cost, and risk. Yet too often, […]
Beyond Testing: The Influence and ROI in Quality Engineering
How many time have you been told: “Do more with less.” ? Budgets are shrinking. Hiring freezes are tightening. Yet expectations for faster releases and flawless user experiences keep climbing. The pressure lands squarely on QE leaders: keep quality high, no matter what. In the past, the answer seemed straightforward: add more testers. More eyes […]
Beyond Testing: The QE Influence Gap — Why Feedback Dies
Every QE leader has faced this more or less: your team runs the tests, collects the defects, aggregates feedback from betas, and drops everything into Jira or Confluence — only to watch the insights fade into backlog limbo. The work was done, the signals were clear, but nothing changed. This is the QE Influence Gap. […]
Gamifying Quality: How to Truly Engage Developers and Development Leaders into Quality Engineering
Why Developers Often Tune Out of QE? I’ve spent more than 16 years leading Quality Engineering (QE) transformations across companies small and large. One pattern I see consistently: developers nod politely when quality is mentioned, but when it comes to actually engaging with quality activities, enthusiasm fades. It’s not because developers don’t care. In fact, […]
