While some level of technical debt is unavoidable, left unchecked it can significantly impact productivity and product quality. However, recent advancements in AI offer promising solutions to manage and reduce technical debt more effectively.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our upcoming event, <\/span>“AI in Software Development – Reducing Technical Debt”,<\/span><\/b> explores how AI can be leveraged to address this pervasive challenge:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Making the most of Co-Pilots:<\/span><\/b> With the right prompting from your engineers, co-pilots move from advanced auto-fill tools to pair-programming assistants. By learning your team’s best practices and coding styles co-pilots can catch bugs, errors and divergence from best practices in real time, suggesting edits to allow engineers to write cleaner, more reusable and more effective code, minimising technical debt before it is committed to your codebase.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Testing Velocity:<\/span><\/b> In recent internal experiments involving a number of AI tools, our consultants found that generating testing materials (unit tests, test cases, etc.) with AI significantly accelerates the quality engineering and assurance process. They demonstrated over a 50% increase in test velocity, allowing engineering teams to apply more rigorous QA standards to a larger portion of the codebase without slowing down the release cycle. This approach not only enhances overall software quality but also reduces future time spent on bug fixing, hot fixes, and support tasks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1720608025266{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #e5eef5 !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1720607938920{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
