Validation and testing strategy of AI systems

Artificial intelligence has introduced a new approach to system validation. Unlike traditional algorithms, AI generates new content, streamlines processes, and simulates results. Verification and validation are crucial to ensure that AI systems provide accurate and reliable results. For this reason, additional testing is required, taking into account certain parameters such as input and output data, precision, resolution, and accuracy. In this talk we will explore testing strategies for AI-integrated software systems, focusing on pre-deployment testing techniques such as unit, integration and performance testing. These parameters need to be reliably tested, and for this purpose, a series of techniques and tools have been developed to perform this testing in a secure and reliable manner. Our discussion will include the input data and how can impact the results and the system´s performance. We will also cover critical performance metrics to ensure the software’s robustness, reliability, and effectiveness.
