We’ve used ML for many testing related areas, but nothing specific to videos I’m afraid

Interesting to see how quickly AI is being adopted and developed in all sorts of use cases. We just introduced AI to help generate test cases in our TTM for Jira product that dramatically increases productivity.

Specifically for video, a company like Alegion is doing some great AI/ML work along the lines of data labeling but even they have a large team of humans to solve what AI is unable to determine.

Yes, there have been already some tools to test images and videos using AI methods. AI-based image/video testing tools work based on detecting different objects of interest within two or more images/videos and comparing those objects to test if there are any changes in the same object within the images/videos. Most of the AI-based tools utilize Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which is a popular deep learning architecture for image and video processing applications.

For more information, you can visit this web page (Video Analytics in Practical AI Applications o2023 Guide] - viso.ai) that introduces Video Analytics, which is a deep learning based tool for analyzing and detecting changes in videos that is a common use case of video testing. You can also find a deep learning based algorithm for real-time change detection in video here (A Real-Time Change Detection Algorithm | Rafik Hariri Institute for Computing and Computational Science & Engineering (bu.edu)).

Can you describe some ML projects in your company?

I can’t give too many details away due to NDAs but some personal thoughts where ML can help now posted at 

Anyone here have implemented Smart Regression Testing with AI?  It uses intelligent ML algorithms to choose and prioritize test cases.

@David.Giacomini  same here, we are currently using chatGPT in creating test cases, and it has been a huge help.  We also utilize chatGPT to create/check some of the codes for our automated testing. 

Could you, please,  share some experience how you did it ? Can you show an example pls ? I’ve been thinking on implementing the same thing in our company, but I’m not sure how the end result will turn out :) 

@mmario.ffrohlich - wanted to do a full series on that topic but stopped since people did not want to learn about ChatGPT and promting

@IOan  thanks' for the share, I’ll give it a look :)

Really ? That’s really surprising considering all the hype. I mean, LLMs are here and are spreading like wildfire regardless how one feels about them. Why not grab opportunity to learn something about new technology. Sheees, sometimes I really can’t understand us humans. What’s next, burning LLMs at the stake ?!
