SYSTEMATIC PESSIMISM: SCALING QUALITY ENGINEERING WITH AUTOMATED FAILURE DISCOVERY

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Systematic pessimism is an approach to quality engineering that focuses on automated failure discovery. Traditional testing methods often focus on "happy paths”, which test how the product is used under ideal conditions. On the other hand, AI can be useful in brainstorming and generating edge cases outside of happy paths, which leads to better quality overall.
