AI, BDD, and Why We're Bad at Predicting the Future

Hello Reader,
Lately, it seems the conversation around AI has shifted. We're moving past the initial "what can this chat window do?" phase and into the more practical, and sometimes awkward, integration into our development lifecycle.

Filip Hric 13th May 2025 TO BE OR NOT TO BE (TECHNICAL) Hey Reader!There’s an ongoing debate in the QA world on whether it makes sense to get technical or not. I remember having a fairly heated debate on this last November at Agile Testing Days in Potsdam.
