Sketchnote of "Air Fryers, Automation, and AI" by Angie Jones at Agile Testing Days 2025
Sketch figure with speech bubble: "We moved from survival cooking to enjoying, and now with fryers it had become more precise and efficient"
We're automating more and worrying less about mechanics
Chefs had to adapt to new techniques - they knew tools don't replace them but enhance their skills and push their craft further
Less effort, better results
With new things, fear, uncertainty and doubt arises - we can either panic or adapt and push what our tools can do
Thanks to MCPs, agents can interact with tools now and do more
Insight, circled like a cloud: MCPs now make these tools available and usable for everyone - in natural language
We still need to check our work - our name is on it!
Sketch figure with speech bubble: "I have a cookbook with recipes for you"
List of nine points:
Modernize your tech stack
Migrate design pattern
Apply clean coding principles
Add test IDs as locators
Run relevant tests on PR
Triage tests
Catch errors with BiDi
Analyze weak areas
Auto-write tests on PR
Insight, framed: You've got upgraded tools - consider how to apply them at your jobs
