Vilnius QA Meetup
Tools don’t necessarily create quality - engineers do. Save the date for January 29 and join Architus for a deep dive into the realities of modern QA.
We will discuss how to scale reporting with Generative AI without falling for the hype, how to architect complex data sets with minimal manual effort, and why - in an era of automated chaos - human accountability remains irreplaceable.
The event is designed for quality engineers, but we welcome developers, AI enthusiasts, and anyone committed to the future of software excellence.
Agenda 🎤
18:00 - 18:05 Intro
18:05 - 18:40
Lina Zubytė - Independent Quality Consultant, Freelancer, host of QualityBits
"Sorry, You're Far from Getting Replaced by AI"
AI can generate code, but it can’t solve people's problems or take responsibility for failures. Learn why senior expertise remains the essential bridge between high-speed AI output and actual software quality.
18:40 - 19:25
Raymond Ding - AI/ML Customer Engineer at Google
"Agentic AI in Practice on Google Cloud"
This session presents an architecture-driven view of how to design agentic AI applications on Google Cloud with quality assurance built in from the start, focusing on recommended architectural patterns and platform capabilities across the Google Cloud AI stack, with particular attention to Google’s guidance for evaluation, testing, and validation of LLM-powered agents.
19:25 - 19:45 - Break
19:45 - 20:20
Viktor Nedelko - Senior QA Automation Engineer at Architus
"Grounded Application of Generative AI in Test Automation"
Skip the AI hype for a practical look at simplifying test reporting and failure analysis at scale. We’ll demonstrate how to use Generative AI to optimise the most thankless part of the job: debugging flakes and speeding up daily workflows.
20:20 - 21:00
Nigel Rantor - Tech Lead at OVO
"The Unexpected Benefits of Being Lazy"
A retrospective on building a complex user interface and deciding to generate amazing data for quality assurance because doing it by hand threatens to drive you to drink.
