Introducing ConformIQ SmartGen: Empowering the Users to achieve Requirements to Execution with the power of GenAI and Symbolic AI 

Jan 16, 2025 | Blogs

The challenge of translating textual specifications into actionable test scenarios has always been a challenging task for testers and as a tester, I have struggled in the past to correctly translate some requirements into proper test cases. Traditional methods often involve manually understanding complex specifications, interpreting requirements, and crafting test cases from scratch. This labor-intensive process not only consumes valuable time but is also prone to inconsistencies and errors. At Conformiq, we understand these challenges deeply, and that’s why we’re thrilled to introduce SmartGen, a groundbreaking feature integrated directly into Conformiq Creator.

 

What is SmartGen?

SmartGen is ConformIQ’s GenAI-powered, innovative feature designed to automatically convert your requirements specification documents into Gherkin scenarios with user stories. Leveraging the power of a highly configured Large Language Model (LLM), SmartGen ensures precision, adaptability, and alignment with your testing needs. This technology takes your requirement specifications—whether they’re written in natural language or structured formats—and transforms them into a comprehensive Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) model, all with minimal effort from your end.

 

How Does It Work?

SmartGen, seamlessly integrated with Conformiq Creator, provides you with a dedicated interface for converting the Requirements to Model flows (Graphical Representation of the application flow).  The users can then review, refine, and directly convert models into automated tests. 

 

From Requirements to Results: 

Step 1: Collaborative Modeling with ConformIQ’s SmartGen 

Use ConformIQ’s SmartGen to collaboratively transform requirements into actionable insights using visual Gherkin models. This ensures alignment across developers, analysts, and testers from the start, synchronizing efforts and eliminating communication gaps.

 

Step 2: Deterministic Test Generation with ConformIQ’s Symbolic AI (MBT)

ConformIQ’s MBT flow ensures optimized, validated test cases that meet all business rules and coverage goals. Its rule-based approach delivers outputs that are correct by construction, eliminating the need for repeated reviews.

 

Step 3: Effortless Automation

Generate and execute test scripts seamlessly in your environment. ConformIQ integrates effortlessly with any execution tools like open-source, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), or proprietary framework, reducing manual intervention while improving efficiency.

 

Why SmartGen?

ConformIQ has been the pioneer in the Test Design Automation approach. The test design automation is backed by Symbolic AI, providing deterministic results. With the power of SmartGen (GenAI) and MBT (Symbolic AI), ConformIQ aims to create a seamless testing process—combining creativity and precision to deliver unparalleled results. ConformIQ’s matured Symbolic AI steers the output generated by GenAI in the right direction, empowering the users with enhanced and automated test processes with a click.

 

  • Speed Up Test Creation

Manual test creation is time-consuming and often plagued by delays. SmartGen dramatically reduces this time by automating the generation of test scenarios from specifications. This means you can focus more on testing and less on preparation.

 

  • Enhance Collaboration

By producing clear and concise Gherkin scenarios, SmartGen fosters better communication between testers, developers, and business stakeholders. User stories ensure that all parties are aligned on what needs to be tested and why.

 

  • Increase Accuracy

With a finely tuned LLM at its core, SmartGen minimizes interpretation errors. This ensures that your test scenarios align closely with the intent of your specifications.

 

  • Simplify Complexity

SmartGen bridges the gap between specifications and model-based testing by converting raw documents into structured BRMs. This allows testers to layer additional functionality, ensuring the scenarios cater to even the most complex testing needs.

 

A Game-Changer for Testers

Traditionally, testers base their test cases on specifications provided (or not) is some textual format. However, this process often extends to creating models for Model-Based Testing (MBT), which can also be time-consuming and complex. SmartGen takes this to the next level by enabling you to speed up both test creation and model generation for actual users of MBT, empowering testers to work more efficiently:

  • Automatically translate specifications into actionable test assets.
  • Eliminate the manual effort required for creating Gherkin scenarios.
  • Gain a head start on creating MBT models and adding test automation layers.

 

With SmartGen, Conformiq Creator becomes the ultimate platform for accelerating your testing lifecycle—from specification to execution—with efficiency and precision.

 

ConformIQ GenAI (SmartGen) + Symbolic AI (MBT) = Productivity++
