How AI Impacts QA | Los Angeles Meetup

The Test Tribe 1st Los Angeles Meetup – How AI Impacts QA AI isn’t replacing testers - but it’s definitely changing the game.

Join us at The Test Tribe’s 1st Los Angeles Meetup for an evening conversation on how AI is transforming the way we approach software quality. Led by Meera Gajjar, this session will explore how AI enables smarter automation, improves test resilience, and supports performance testing - without removing the critical thinking that testers bring to the table.

Session: How AI Impacts QA

Speaker: Meera Gajjar

Session OverviewIn traditional test automation, minor UI or logic changes often break scripts - slowing teams down and introducing unnecessary maintenance overhead. But with AI, that's starting to change.

This session will look at how AI-based tools can self-heal automation scripts, dynamically adapt to changes in the UI, and even support performance testing efforts. The goal is not to replace testers - but to help them move faster and smarter.

Key Takeaways

• AI is not here to replace QA - but to accelerate it
• Learn how AI can support performance testing and resilience
• Understand how AI-based tools adapt to change and reduce test fragility
