Next-Gen Software Engineering: A Test Model for Every Model
Next-gen software engineering pairs every model with a test model. AI code looks cheap, but someone still has to version, document and test it.

Latest Episodes
Conversations with testers, developers, and coaches who work in the field.
Startup Software Testing: Why Testability Comes First
Startup software testing begins with testability and customer focus, not formal processes. Outnumbered testers have to speak up, even to management.
AI Test Assistant: Test Cases Compliant with ISO 29119
An AI test assistant generates ISO 29119 test cases for business teams without testing know-how. Munich's Sherlock exports them to TestLink or Xray.
Ensemble (Mob) Testing: Test Expertise Grows in the Dev Team
Two years of exploratory ensemble testing in a real project: What the method brings, where it gets stuck and why testing is suddenly fun.
Error Culture: Clarify What Errors Mean at Project Start
Error culture sounds good on the vision board, but collapses at the first real bug. What really helps before the stress comes.
Thermal Management Testing: Earlier with HiL and Virtual ECU
Thermal management testing for electric vehicles moves from the road to HiL and a virtual ECU. Faults show up earlier, yet a test run still takes days.
Is AI in Software Testing Making the Tester's Job Obsolete?
AI in software testing is not making testers redundant. The job shifts toward test strategy, critical questioning and early work in refinements.
Software Quality: AI Only Accelerates Well-Defined Processes
Software quality depends on a solid test process. AI doesn't fix weak processes, it exposes them faster. Testers also need gut feeling.
Autism in Software Testing: Where the Advantage Is Real
Autism in software testing: any deviation from a learned pattern sets off an alarm. An autistic tester on finding bugs without searching, and its cost.
Consumer-Driven Contract Testing: Consumers Define the API
Consumer-driven contract testing with Pact checks what an API sends and what its consumers expect. If a contract breaks, the build fails before release.
Testing Legacy Apps with AI: Visual Selectors Instead of IDs
Testing legacy apps without element IDs works with visual AI selectors. Deutsche Bahn cut mobile checkout regression from two weeks to three hours.
Quality Storming: HACCP and Event Storming for Software
Quality Storming combines Event Storming with HACCP from food safety to show where errors creep into development, long before anyone tests.
Testing Wind Turbines: Lightning Only Strikes in the Field
Testing wind turbines means covering about 164 subsystems with simulators, hardware in the loop and field data, because lightning cannot be provoked.
AI Bias: People Adopt Biases from Algorithms
AI bias spreads because people adopt it from algorithms even faster than from humans and rarely notice. Comparative data keeps AI decisions in check.
Software Contracts: Agile Teams Often Owe the Whole Backlog
Two missing sentences in a software contract can drive a company into bankruptcy. Why agile software projects end up as contracts for work.
Dynamic Analysis: Embedded Coverage on Real Hardware
Dynamic analysis on real hardware: embedded trace measures code coverage in integration testing without the timing side effects of instrumentation.
Software Testing with Java: JUnit, WireMock, and Selenium
Software testing with Java follows the test pyramid, from unit tests in milliseconds to UI tests that take minutes. Maven controls what runs when.
Teaching Software Testing: Students Need Real Complexity
Software testing is hard to teach at university because small exercises hide the benefit. Complex projects, TDD and testable architecture make it click.
