How QA Teams Are Really Using AI in Everyday Testing | In Person Meetup

Why we picked it

The Test Tribe Calgary Meetup – Beyond Automation: How QA Teams Are Really Using AI in Everyday Testing AI is rapidly reshaping Quality Engineering, extending far beyond traditional test automation. In this practical and interactive session, Shanmugam (Shan) explores how modern QA teams are using AI tools like Microsoft Copilot across the entire testing lifecycle — from requirement analysis and test design to defect reporting, collaboration, communication, execution, and test closure activities. Rather than focusing on hype, this session dives into real-world use cases, lessons learned, and practical examples from enterprise QA environments. Shan will also discuss where AI delivers the most value, where human judgment remains essential, and how QA professionals can adopt AI responsibly without losing critical thinking or ownership of quality. ***Event Details*** * ***Date: Wednesday, May 20, 2026*** * ***Time: 5:45 PM – 8:30 PM MT*** * ***Venue: InceptionU, 800 3 St SE, 3rd Floor,
