Software testing is an essential part of the development process and is evolving rapidly with the advent of new technologies and methodologies. By 2024, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) will be routinely used to generate test cases, predict critical areas of an application for testing, and identify the root causes of defects in software. Predictive analytics will be used to forecast potential issues before they occur, while the ‘Shift-Left’ approach will involve integrating testing early and often in the development process. Automation in functional testing is also expected to expand, with more companies adopting automated functional testing tools to speed up the testing process.
