DeepQA uses AI to automate software testing to help companies focus developer resources on their most complex problems. DeepQA uses intelligent methods to automate the User Interface (UI) testing process - from writing the tests, to implementing them - for browser-based software applications.  DeepQA’s ability to efficiently write automated tests with almost no requirement for technical human input will be an industry first.

Problem 

When developing a website, software engineers create bugs. These bugs can cause the site to break, users to churn and revenue to be lost. To avoid bugs companies must test their software, however if QA practices are not good they are going to create more work for themselves.

QA testing is often a highly manual process. Even when automated, the test?s dependence on often changing source code will mean that it will break, meaning 30% of a tester's time is required to maintain tests. 

Solution

DeepQA helps its customers scale using software testing hyperautomation to intelligently identify bugs, and enable robust, yet fast, development practices. By automating Quality Assurance (QA), DeepQA helps companies focus developer resources on their most complex problems.
