How to test Jira tickets automatically with an AI QA agent | SmartBear BearQ for Jira

You can add AI-driven testing to your Jira workflow by handing tickets to the QA Lead Agent in SmartBear BearQ for Jira. Move a finished ticket, and the agent checks for an existing test, links or creates one, runs it, and reports back. If your team builds with coding agents like Claude or Cursor in Jira, BearQ, the agentic QA system, adds the quality step to that AI-driven software development lifecycle (SDLC).

From AI chaos to agentic QA, ft. Andy Weir, author of The Martian and Project Hail Mary

10x faster coding. Same QA. Until now. You're coding faster with AI. But if your agents are siloed and disconnected, those gains aren’t yet showing up in your quality or delivery – it's getting lost in the handoffs. Join SmartBear for a live demonstration of the connected agentic SDLC. See how BearQ extends beyond creating tests to coordinating quality work across Jira, GitHub, and AI-powered workflows – detecting issues, triggering the right next action, and carrying context from one agent to the next.

From Gizmos to Zoos: Building Better Workflows for Game Developers with Robin-Yann Storm

How do you solve problems that nobody reports? In this episode, Robin-Yann Storm, tool design director and former developer at IO Interactive, Guerrilla Games, and Apple, shares how a small usability issue with a 3D transform gizmo led to a workflow improvement that developers still use years later, saving thousands of hours. The discussion looks beyond the solution itself to examine the process of discovering the problem, understanding its root cause, and exploring how to solve it. Robin-Yann explains why observing users is often more valuable than collecting feature requests and how small UX improvements can deliver outsized returns.

Are Traditional Methods and Tools for Safety and Security Sufficient for the AIDLC of the Future?

AI may make coding faster, but can your safety, security, and verification practices keep pace? In this webinar, Perforce Director of Product Steve Howard examines how the emerging AI Development Lifecycle (AIDLC) could reshape embedded software development and specifically V&V processes. You'll also learn where AI can help, where its limitations remain, and what organizations should consider as they prepare for AI-driven development.

AI Workspace + Tosca: Building agentic test cases for SAP Fiori apps

Going from a written requirement to an executable test usually means writing the steps and data yourself, then mapping each one to the application by hand. Pair Tricentis AI Workspace's requirement analysis with Tosca's agentic automation to go from a Jira ticket to a running, reusable test case for your SAP Fiori applications. In this walkthrough, you will see how to generate a test case from a requirement, map it to the Fiori UI, and save it for regression.

Don't Let Accessibility Testing Become Your Next Nightmare

On Halloween, appearances win. A great costume gets the best candy, and nobody asks what’s underneath. Digital products get judged the same way on launch day. The interface is polished, the demo goes smoothly, and every stakeholder walks away happy. Then someone opens the app with VoiceOver or TalkBack, and the mask slips. Buttons have no labels. Focus jumps around the screen. A form can’t be completed with a screen reader.

Omnichannel vs Multichannel Banking: What's the Difference?

‍ Omnichannel vs multichannel banking describes two different approaches to managing customer interactions across banking channels. The distinction affects customer experience, data architecture, operating models, personalization, and service continuity. Multichannel banking gives customers access through mobile apps, websites, branches, ATMs, and contact centers. However, each channel may operate through separate systems, customer records, and workflows.

Tricentis Labs: Evaluating and Scoring AI Agents with Agent Score

Agents are easy to build and hard to measure. When your company runs hundreds or thousands of them, hand-written evals can’t keep up, and it’s unclear which agents are correct, efficient, and ready for users. In this conversation, Ryan Yackel, SVP of Product Marketing, and Andrew Demers, Product Manager for Agent Score at Tricentis Labs, explain how to measure agent quality, score agents automatically, and trace issues back to behavior.
