Abstract
AI agents are flooding codebases with far more code than humans can possibly review – so how do you verify the integrity and reliability of your software?
This talk introduces deterministic simulation testing (DST). Rather than testing specified functionality, DST explores the state space of a software system, providing developers with a full picture of how their software could behave – and consequently, revealing all the ways it could go wrong.
DST bridges specification and testing and works regardless of how complex a codebase is, making it an invaluable tool to developers and companies trying to integrate agentic coding into their workflows.
