Why It Matters

Traditional QA

Test defined user flows and investigate defects

→

Automation QA

Execute repeatable regression and CI checks

→

API & Integration Testing

Validate services, contracts and data

→

AI Response Testing

Evaluate non-deterministic outputs against quality criteria

→

LLM & RAG Evaluation

Measure grounding, retrieval, relevance and safety

→

Agent Testing

Validate planning, tools, memory, state and stopping conditions

→

AI QA Orchestration

Coordinate the complete quality system across agents, evaluators and humans

LLM Applications

Prompts, outputs, formats and factual quality

RAG Systems

Retrieval, grounding, context and citation quality

AI Agents

Planning, tool use, memory, state, loops and stop conditions

AI Workflows

APIs, data, models, controls and human hand-offs

Hallucination & weak grounding

Unsafe or biased output

Incorrect tool selection

Incorrect tool parameters

Infinite loops

Failed stopping logic

Schema failures

Sensitive-data exposure

Quality drift after prompt changes

Quality drift after model changes

Modern AI systems include LLMs, RAG pipelines, agents, tools, memory, workflows and human hand-offs. Quality engineering must therefore move beyond isolated pass/fail testing into evaluation systems that reason about evidence, uncertainty and risk.

Who Should Attend

  • QA Engineers moving into AI quality engineering

  • Automation Engineers and SDETs

  • Test Architects and Quality Engineering Leads

  • Engineers validating AI-powered applications

  • Quality professionals working with LLMs, RAG systems or AI agents

  • Senior QA professionals preparing for AI QA orchestration capability

  • Engineers seeking a portfolio-driven applied learning path

Curriculum

What You’ll Achieve

BUILD

Python, Pytest, APIs and reusable quality automation foundations

EVALUATE

Golden datasets, rubrics, calibrated evaluators and LLM quality measurement

VALIDATE RAG

Retrieval quality, grounding, citations and root-cause diagnosis

TEST & SECURE AGENTS

Planning, tools, memory, state, loops, permissions and human controls

ORCHESTRATE

Coordinate specialist QA agents, routing, shared state and evidence aggregation

OPERATE & GOVERN

CI/CD quality gates, production traces, drift detection and human release decisions

Build Python, Pytest, APIs and reusable quality automation foundations. Evaluate with golden datasets, rubrics, calibrated evaluators and LLM quality measurement. Validate RAG retrieval, grounding and citations. Test and secure agents. Orchestrate specialist QA agents. Operate and govern through CI/CD quality gates, production traces, drift detection and human release decisions.

Observe

→

Stop or Repeat

Agent testing must validate the complete trajectory, not only the final response. Planning, tool selection, parameters, memory, state, stopping conditions and recovery behaviour all contribute to system quality.

Planning validation

Tool selection

Parameter validation

Tool mocks

State & memory

Loop detection

Stop conditions

Security & permissions

Automated Quality Gates Workflow

Code Change

→

Pytest & Evaluation Suite

→

AI Quality Checks

→

Evidence & Reports

→

GitHub Actions

→

Human Release Decision

The program moves quality engineering from local test execution into automated quality gates, production feedback loops and evidence-based release decisions.

Technical README

Integrated AI Quality Orchestration System: one enterprise quality system for an AI-powered support or knowledge agent using RAG, multiple tools, memory and human escalation. The learner identifies risks, routes test suites, evaluates API, LLM, RAG, safety and agent behavior, consolidates evidence, escalates uncertainty and produces a human-readable release recommendation requiring human approval.

Career Relevance
