Can AI help us automate tests faster?

Just like most of you, I'm writing more code than ever in the last year.

I feel like I cloned myself 5 times.

But my blood tension rises when I see Claude saying "You're absolutely right!" after it inserted a bug.

And we did introduce a significant number of bugs in production in the last few months.

I'm old enough to remember the days when testing was taken more seriously, I don't know what happened after that.

Maybe some younger devs assumed that cross-browser issues are no longer a thing? Because they sure are.

I'm looking at a list of AI Testing Tools and trying a few of them.

The last thing I want is to write Selenium or Playwright code and having to maintain a separate codebase just for the tests.

I want some fancy AI tool that creates tests and then takes care of them and just informs me if the tests are passing or not.

Seems reasonable, right?
