Webinar on End-to-End Test Orchestration using MCP Servers by Ragunath Chilkuru
We're excited to announce the upcoming TTTribeCast Webinar on: "End-to-End Test Orchestration using MCP Servers" by Ragunath Chilkuru (Staff SDET, Inspire)
📅 29th July 2026 | Wednesday 🕘 9:00 PM – 10:30 PM IST 💻 Live on Zoom | Free to attend
What will Ragunath speak about:
Most QA teams are still switching between requirement docs, their local codebase, and CI/CD dashboards to get automation done. This session is about closing that gap -using AI not as a code generator you prompt occasionally, but as something closer to an actual QA teammate working inside your IDE.
Ragunath Chilkuru, Staff SDET at Inspire, joins TTTribeCast to break down how Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers let you chain your entire Quality Engineering workflow - from test case to automation to CI/CD, without leaving your editor.
You'll walk away with:
✅A working understanding of MCP architecture - how to configure and run local or cloud-based MCP servers to connect your IDE with enterprise tools
✅How to chain test generation and CI/CD execution into a single AI-driven workflow
✅How a custom agent can perform root-cause analysis on Jenkins build/test failures without switching tools
✅A foundation you can start applying to your own automation projects right after the session
This session is for you if you're:
• An SDET or automation engineer working with Selenium, Playwright, or Appium
• A QA lead or engineering manager exploring where AI actually fits into testing workflows
• Someone tired of manually stitching together test tools, CI/CD pipelines, and IDEs
