AI-powered Software Testing: Lessons from Siemens & Shopify

Dean does QA

In this episode, we explore how artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping the software testing landscape. We start with Shopify’s 2025 directive requiring teams to prove that AI cannot handle a task before hiring a new employee. We then examine how Siemens Digital Industries Software is embedding AI into its Tessent testing tools, using analytical, predictive, and generative AI to optimize chip and software testing.

Topics covered include the current pace of AI adoption in testing, practical examples of AI-powered quality engineering, and the skills QA professionals will need in the coming years. Whether you are a software engineer, QA lead, or tech executive, this episode offers actionable insights into the future of AI-augmented software testing.
