Tired of shallow AI-in-testing stuff?

This guy goes deep 🔥

Karthik KK was my first mentor in automation. His YT & Udemy courses taught me the real stuff.

Now he’s coming LIVE w/ #ShiftSync by Tricentis ! 💥

Big News! I’m incredibly excited to share that I’ll be leading a tutorial at EuroSTAR Conference 2025.

It is one of the most prestigious forums in the world of software testing.

📍 Edinburgh
📅 June 3-6
🎓 Tutorial: “Do You Have a Testing Toolkit? Let’s Build One”

just finished my holidays today.

will resume work from tomorrow.

learning is discovery, not memorization.

Starting with the awesome team #RevolUiPathers on the #UiPathHackathonWithTTT by #UiPath and powered by the_test_tribe.

Amazing vibes and energy!

Thanks to the awesome support team of #UIPath for unblocking us and helping us get started.

Thanks, Atisha Raikar for the help. 🙌

Council of LLMs for Testers - Rahul's Testing Titbits A modern twist on ancient wisdom. Let's learn how to use a Council of LLMs as a tester to solve problems like kings & governments did, with diverse AI advisors.

Use it for:
✅ Brainstorming
✅ Testing
✅ Strategy
✅ Creative work

Let the council guide you.

Full blog on this: testingtitbits.com/council-of-l...

#AI #LLMs #PromptEngineering #Productivity #Tech #RahulParwal

The council goes to work.

What you get back is gold:
✅ Fresh Ideas
🔍 Gaps & blind spots
🛠️ Detailed Plans

A 24/7 advisory board for your brain.

This isn’t just smart—it’s ancient wisdom, upgraded.
Akbar had his Navratnas.
You’ve got your LLMs.

Old strategy.
New tools.
Massive leverage.

Each LLM brings unique strengths—
One's a code genius.
Another's a creative spark.
Another spots flaws like a devil’s advocate.

Together?
They become your Council of LLMs.

How it works:
You bring a basic idea.
You craft a solid prompt:
→ What
→ How
→ With context, examples, and goals.

The smartest leaders in history never made decisions alone.
👑 Kings had councils.
🏛️ Governments have expert panels.
🧠 Why? Diverse minds = better outcomes.

Now imagine having your own council...
But instead of people, it’s made up of the world’s best AI models.

And judgment requires context, nuance, and ownership.

Responsibility and testing are two sides of the same coin.
You can’t outsource one without weakening the other.

Autonomy without accountability?
That’s irresponsibility.

AI agents should empower, not replace.

Thoughts?

My take on AI agents (especially in testing):

Not every problem needs a fully autonomous system.
Sometimes, what you really need… is a smart assistant, not a decision-maker.

Testing is one of those problems.
The human must remain in the loop.

Why? Because testing is judgment.
And judgment...

1/2

Guess who?

Breaking things with care,

Seeking flaws in hidden trails,

Finding the truth behind the code.

I'm excited to kickstart my webinar # 2 for the Gen AI mini-course today.

The session starts in 30 minutes.

Start time: 08:30 PM IST

See you at the #ShiftSync Tricentis webinar 🚀

Week 1 was filled with some amazing submissions and discussions. 😍

• Staying in the Comfort Zone: Growth happens when you push beyond what’s familiar — don’t be afraid to challenge yourself.

• Ignoring Trends: The tech landscape evolves rapidly. Keeping up with the latest trends and demands is crucial to staying relevant.

• Chasing Shortcuts: There’s no substitute for the hard work and persistence needed to truly master your craft.

• Pointing Fingers: Blaming managers, colleagues, or even your company only delays taking personal responsibility for growth.

• Avoiding Proof of Work in Public

• Learning Without Action: Absorbing knowledge without putting it into practice means your hard-earned lessons fade away.

• Resource Hoarding: Saving links, references, and tutorials without ever actually using them? That’s a fast track to underdevelopment.

How do you ensure you remain “unhirable” as a tester?

It might sound counterintuitive, but here’s a checklist of habits that could be sabotaging your career:

• Neglecting Your Craft: If you’re not constantly sharpening your skills, you’re setting yourself up for stagnation.

Before Gen AI, I was not able to find time to create these micro utils for my work.

Atleast not to the extent I do now.

“Idea to a quick prototype” has become a lot faster.

Code is no more a restriction (provided you understand reading it)

My micro util workflow:

Think - Prototype - Test - Use.

It is applicable to some coding tasks (regular code development).

For testers, it can be regular test code development.

Eg. Writing Scripts Based on Existing Scripts

(Redundant Nature of Work).

In day to day work, it helps me w/ quick micro utils by helping with building blocks and modification

If used wisely, you can use AI to automate the automation.

That's like 100x efficiency.

What needed a team of engineers can now be done quickly

(but the catch is you need to know what needs to be done)

And if you can learn like this, it will be 10x faster, and you can achieve success.

You can complete the portfolio project. You can start your blog.

You can articulate your thoughts on any learned topic with 10x clarity.

Apply your learnings or wait till they fade away.

Here’s a harsh truth about learning:

Most of you're learning super slow. You will easily forget what you learned if you don't put it into action against real-world challenges.

When you put learning (theory) into action, the real learning happens!

Debugging a failing test is like navigating a narrow lane.

Each wrong turn leads to a dead end.

..and this list can go on and on...

Every tool has its own story, and every tester picks tools based on their context.

What are the novel tools you use to power your testing?

Let’s share and build a smarter testing ground together. Drop your favorites in reply! 👇
