Beyond the Expected Result: Evolving into an AI Test Engineer

When the same input can produce a different, equally valid output every time, “expected result” stops being something you can pin down, and the testing instincts we’ve spent years sharpening suddenly don’t fit.

This talk is about what comes next. Drawing on my own move from testing deterministic software to testing AI products, I’ll walk through how the craft actually changes, what carries over, what doesn’t, and the concrete skills that turn a tester into an AI tester. How to judge output that has no single correct answer, how to catch failures that pass every traditional check, and where to start.

Key Takeaways

✅A practical maturity path for AI testing from manual spot-checks to scaled, automated evaluation so you can locate where you stand and see the next step.

✅How to catch failures that pass every traditional check: valid, fluent, well-formed output that’s still wrong.

✅How to judge the quality of non-deterministic output in a way that’s repeatable and defensible, not just gut feel.

Think outside the Testing Pyramid

I’ve seen testing, especially end to end testing, done wrongly over the years, and sadly I often see the same anti-patterns repeated over and over. so I thought it would be worthwhile to share my thoughts on this complex topic.
