In this episode of the TestGuild Podcast, Joe Colantonio sits down with Karim Jouini, founder of Thunders, to explore a radically different approach to AI testing: executing test automation in plain English without generating Selenium or Playwright code.
Instead of “auto-healing selectors,” Thunders interprets natural language directly — allowing teams to:
Karim shares real-world case studies, including:
- A European bank that reduced a 3-year core banking upgrade testing effort to 4 months
- A SaaS company that transitioned from a traditional QA team to AI-assisted product-led testing
- Whether AI test agents replace QA roles
- How QA managers must shift from individual contributors to AI managers
- The risks of adopting AI without a defined success metric
- The future of shift-left testing in the AI era.
If you’re a software tester, automation engineer, QA lead, or DevOps leader trying to understand what’s hype versus real ROI in AI testing — this episode breaks it down.
Try it for yourself and see how AI testing fits into your pipeline.
