UI automation has evolved rapidly over the last year. The rise of AI assisted testing, the continued shift toward hybrid application architectures and growing pressure for cross platform coverage have all reshaped the automation landscape. With so much change, now is the ideal time to revisit the question many organisations are asking in 2026. What
Over the past year, AI has dominated conversations across the software industry. Predictions of fully autonomous QA, instant test generation and self-healing automation filled headlines, while fears around job displacement added fuel to the hype. As we move further into 2025, that excitement has begun to settle. Organisations are evaluating AI more realistically and with
Precision and creativity are often viewed as opposites, yet the most advanced industries today depend on both. Whether in engineering, architecture, gaming, healthcare, or defence, success increasingly relies on the balance between technical accuracy and visual excellence. The software that supports these image-heavy and design-led environments is complex and highly interactive, demanding a new kind
In modern software testing, especially for QA professionals working in regulated sectors or high-precision environments, automation tools must go beyond basic object recognition. For QA testers responsible for validating complex systems – such as CAD, simulation, media, or engineering platforms – many frameworks run into technical limits as graphical accuracy rises and user demands increase.
Selecting the right test automation platform is crucial for maintaining software quality and operational efficiency, especially when dealing with complex GUI-rich applications and robotic process automation (RPA) workflows. In 2025, T-Plan, Ranorex Studio, and Eggplant stand out as top contenders, each offering unique strengths across platform support, deployment options, AI-driven testing, and ease of use.
Electronic Point of Sale (ePOS) systems sit at the centre of modern retail operations. However, testing these systems is rarely straightforward. With tightly integrated hardware, legacy technology and customer-facing interfaces, retail QA teams often struggle to manage rapid change while maintaining quality. At T-Plan, we delivered a successful proof of concept (PoC) for a major
The Challenge Rolling out a hospital patient portal that works seamlessly across devices and platforms is not just a technical milestone, it is a critical service improvement. Patients need to be able to check test results, book appointments, and request repeat prescriptions quickly and securely. The complexity lies in ensuring the portal is accessible to
The Challenge Preparing multi-country pharmaceutical submissions is a resource-intensive process. Even with experienced teams, the task of gathering data, formatting for different markets and regulatory regions, and ensuring consistency across hundreds of documents remains slow and labour-heavy. Manual handling increases the risk of inconsistencies and errors, which can lead to re-work, missed deadlines, and delayed
In the financial services sector, staying ahead is not just about speed. It is about trust, security and meeting rigorous compliance standards. From global banks to emerging FinTech’s, organisations face relentless pressure to deliver seamless digital experiences while maintaining control over operational and regulatory risks. Yet with increasingly complex technology estates spanning web, mobile and
