The Test Tribe's 6th Toronto Meetup on AI x Quality Engineering

AI is not replacing testers - it’s empowering them.
Join us on June 25th in Toronto for an insightful evening with Alok Gupta, Sr. Manager at RBC, as he dives into how AI is transforming the entire QE lifecycle - from test case creation to performance optimization, with GenAI and agentic workflows leading the charge.

Date: June 25, 2025
Time: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM EST
Venue: 125 East Liberty Street, Toronto, ON

Topic: AI x QE: The Future is Collaborative, Context-Aware, and Agent-Driven

Session Overview:

We’ve moved past the question of whether AI will impact testing—it already has.
Now the real question is: how do we embrace it intelligently?
In this forward-looking session, Alok Gupta will explore how AI is being applied across the software testing lifecycle—not just to generate scripts or test data, but to predict defects, recommend performance improvements, and even co-create solutions alongside engineers using agentic AI.
Learn how coupling AI with business context, application logic, and guardrails is key to driving meaningful outcomes.
He’ll also share his experience building real-world GenAI solutions using RAG models, vector databases, and autonomous agents, and why the future of QE will be a dynamic collaboration between humans and AI agents.

Key Takeaways:

• How GenAI is shaping every stage of QA—from ideation to execution
• Why contextual AI matters: business logic, application data, and safety nets
• Understanding Agentic AI and its implications on collaboration
• How to prepare your QA teams to thrive in an AI-first world
• Real tools, frameworks, and strategies from enterprise experience
