For decades, QA has been the silent bottleneck in software delivery—manual, slow, and costly. Even with test automation tools, enterprises still spend 60–70% of QA time writing, editing, and maintaining scripts. Worse, despite all that effort, critical bugs still slip into production, where they cost exponentially more to fix and erode customer trust. But AI-first

There’s a dangerous myth circulating in the QA industry: that any AI is good AI. Tool vendors are racing to slap on “AI” features—copilots, agents, test case creators—all in an effort to look modern. But beneath the flashy UI and prompt-driven wizardry is a hard truth: these tools are actually slowing down experienced QA professionals. And there’s now

Ask any QA leader about test automation and you’ll hear the same pain points: script creation takes too long, test maintenance is constant, and coverage is never quite enough. AI has started to help—but most solutions are still limited by one fundamental bottleneck: the speed and complexity of the live application itself. At Appvance, we broke

In recent years, the software development lifecycle has been revolutionized by AI-driven coding assistance. Developers can now generate entire blocks of code from simple natural language prompts, turning abstract ideas into working software at unprecedented speed. This phenomenon is known as vibe coding—a creative, intuitive style of programming where ideas flow seamlessly from mind to machine,

Rethinking Software Quality in a Rapidly Evolving LandscapeAs businesses innovate and expand, the number of applications that support critical functions is growing exponentially. However, the complexity of these systems means that traditional QA methods are struggling to keep pace. In today’s fast-moving digital environment, relying solely on manual testing and legacy automation tools is no

Software testing—long a bottleneck in digital transformation—faces its most significant disruption since the dawn of computing. The catalyst: artificial intelligence. And we at Appvance are leading this change. Software now runs everything from banking to healthcare to transport. Yet the methods to ensure it works properly remain stuck in the past. Most firms still rely

The Acceleration of Application Value Creation The number of applications required to support business needs, innovation, and value creation is accelerating, and so is the complexity of those apps.  Current quality assurance and testing approaches simply can’t keep up.  As of 2025, companies are dedicating approximately 35% of their IT budgets to quality assurance and

We recently launched GENI, our new AI platform that will change software testing forever. The Hidden Costs of Software Testing Let’s talk cash. Software bugs cost businesses billions. A Consortium for IT Software Quality study puts the cost of poor software quality in the US at $2.08 trillion in 2020 alone. When apps fail, you

Big news today. We’ve just launched GENI, our new AI system that turns the software testing world upside down. What is GENI? GENI is an AI that converts English test cases to test scripts in seconds. It works 400 times faster than humans, generating about 100 scripts per hour. No more manual testing. No more

True-AI obsoletes manual QA testing and scripting Set to replace millions of human QA testers, GENI’s generative AI makes traditional tools obsolete by converting test cases to scripts in seconds SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Appvance, the technology leader in generative AI for software quality assurance (SQA) and testing, today announced the launch of
