Powering Up QA Teams in the Age of AI-Testing With An Agentic Validation Layer
QA teams shouldn’t pay the price for devs shipping faster with coding agents.
Regression cycles eat days. Every UI change breaks another script. And the tests coding agents write for their own code can’t be trusted, because when those tests fail, the agent often fixes the test instead of the code. So verification lands back on QA.
In this session, QA.tech CEO Daniel Mauno Pettersson shows how QA teams build an agentic validation layer: QA agents that test by user goal instead of by selector, act like a real user, and adapt when flows change. No scripts to rewrite. No code access required.
Includes a live demo of intent based testing, plus what happened at teams that moved their regression runs to agents.
What attendees will discover
- Why the bottleneck moved from writing code to verifying it, and why QA absorbed the difference
- How QA agents test user goals instead of selectors, so a UI change doesn’t mean a rewrite
- What to delegate to agents and what to keep for human judgment
- Why independent verification matters when coding agents write and quietly fix their own tests
- How to run cross device tests from a single prompt, with video replay, logs, and qualitative UX feedback instead of just pass or fail
- How agentic tests handle flakiness and reproducibility, and where scripted automation still wins
- What actually changed for teams that moved regression to agents, including where it didn’t work
