Imagine a new crop of QA automation tooling that's going to leverage these capabilities!
• Semantic change comparison between screenshots. Visual regression testing, where you prompt the model to ignore certain things instead of masking and where it labels the changes with a message, like "chart color changed" or "text shifted down by 3 pixels".
• Using plain English as test scenarios, instead of brittle WebDriver-like APIs.
• Autonomous agent fuzzing the application by free roaming the UI.
• RAG the design artifacts from Jira and Google Docs for more targeted feature exploration and test scenario generation.
• Automatic bug reports as the output of the above. Or even send a draft PR to fix an issue, while at it!
The more I think about use cases, the more it sounds like full software development automation. Late in game, we won't probably need software as it exists today at all. This feels like reading Accelerando again, but this time it's happening for real and to you.
P.S.: Didn't expect to see a cafe from Cyprus - Akakiko Limassol - used as the demo, I'll remember to visit next time I'm in the area :P
