Survey: Adoption of AI Software Testing Slowed by Trust Issues
A new global survey from Leapwork underscores a growing tension in software development: while AI is widely viewed as essential to the future of testing, many teams remain hesitant to rely on it for mission-critical workflows. Based on responses from more than 300 engineers and IT decision-makers, the research indicates that enthusiasm for AI-enabled testing is high. […]
AWS Just Turned “Deploy to AWS” Into a Five-Word Prompt
AWS Agent Plugins give coding agents the skills to architect, estimate costs, and deploy to AWS. Type “deploy to AWS” and the agent handles the rest.
Why AI Makes Requirements a Runtime Artifact
In traditional software, requirements are static design-time artifacts. In AI-enabled systems, they must be continuously observed and enforced in production. Learn how AI collapses the boundary between design-time and runtime, shifting requirements toward behavioral constraints, continuous verification, and shared ownership across engineering and operations
What to do About AI’s Forced Rethink of Reliability in Modern DevOps
As systems become more distributed and AI-driven, traditional uptime metrics are no longer enough. The 2026 SRE Report shows how reliability is shifting toward user experience, speed, and business impact, and how AI is reshaping monitoring, incident response, and the role of SRE and DevOps leaders.
Checkmarx Extends Vulnerability Detection to AI Coding Tool from AWS
Checkmarx this week revealed it has added support for the Kiro artificial intelligence (AI) coding tool provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) to its Checkmarx Developer Assist that leverages AI to surface vulnerabilities before code is committed. The Checkmarx IDE extension for Kiro is designed to be activated from within the Developer Assist tab that […]

Prompt Injection Isn’t Just a Chat Problem — It’s a DevOps Threat
Prompt injection is evolving into a serious DevOps threat, enabling AI agents to misuse tools, leak secrets and execute unauthorized actions unless governed with least privilege, sandboxing and human approval.
Forget the Vibe-Coders, We Need to Support Responsible AI-Assisted Development
While AI tools are increasingly used in development, they should enhance rather than replace human input. Developers must shift from merely writing code to orchestrating and validating AI-generated code. This ‘spec coding’ emphasizes creating specifications that guide both AI and human efforts. Infrastructure must support this transition, with safeguards like reliable build pipelines and automated security scans. Ultimately, AI is a tool to aid developers, but the nuanced responsibilities of design, security, and performance remain firmly in human hands, ensuring responsible and effective use.
