Research of intelligent methods of software testing

This article presents the examination of several techniques and tools used in the automated software testing process. Considering the ever-growing importance of software testing, several possible implications of implementation of artificial intelligence into this area are also discussed. The main objective of this study is to examine the field of test automation by categorising related test activities, to which artificial intelligence tools can be applied for increased efficiency, and evaluate the impact of the application. The main software testing methods are white-box, black-box, and grey-box methods; an effort has been made to determine a connection between the given testing methods and artificial intelligence methods. A brief summary of several artificial intelligence engine tools used to automate testing was also provided. Lastly, the possible future benefits from usage of AI in software testing was investigated.
