Session Outline

Generative AI is reshaping the fundamentals of software engineering in general and software testing in particular and quality leadership is shifting the focus from validation to intelligent adaptation, resilience, and trust in AI-driven decision-making. As software becomes increasingly autonomous and self-learning, traditional testing models face new challenges—blurring the lines between testing, monitoring, and operations while introducing emergent risks.

Quality leaders must redefine assurance strategies, navigate AI-driven trade-offs, and ensure transparency, explainability, and alignment with business objectives. This session explores the strategic imperatives for leaders to rethink quality paradigms and drive AI-augmented excellence in the enterprise.
