NEWTOWN, Pa., Oct. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As software and product development cycles become increasingly accelerated, organizations often encounter costly shortcomings in production due to limited time for thorough testing. Traditional testing approaches — whether manual or automated — are proving inadequate to meet the demands of modern systems. EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE: EPAM) today announced the launch of Agentic QA™, an innovative AI-native testing solution designed to address the challenges of dynamic and accelerated software and product development. As part of EPAM's AI/Run™.Tools platforms, the Agentic QA solution approach bridges the gap between automated and manual testing, enabling clients to move faster than their competitors by reducing lead times and costs.

"With Agentic QA, we are reimagining the future of software testing by combining a cutting-edge AI agentic approach with EPAM's deep engineering expertise and industry knowledge," said Adam Auerbach, vice president of DevTestSecOps practice at EPAM. "This solution is more than a testing tool. It gives clients a faster, more resilient and adaptive testing capability that keeps pace with the demands of modern software development. By combining real-time adaptability and insights from more than a decade of crowd-testing experience, we empower our clients to innovate responsibly, operate efficiently and outpace the competition."

Bridging the gap between rigid automated testing and resource-intensive manual testing, EPAM's Agentic QA introduces Adaptive Regression testing, which combines the power of AI with subject matter expertise in a new vibe testing experience. It dynamically adapts to UI changes, navigates complex user paths and tests functional and non-functional requirements in real-time, providing organizations with a modern, scriptless and highly resilient testing capability.

According to Gartner®, in its 4 Essential Steps to Build Test Automation Capabilities report, which was published on June 13, 2025, "Software engineering leaders are looking for new practices and approaches that their teams can adopt to mitigate risks to the business. Test automation, increasingly powered and enhanced by generative AI technologies, becomes an indispensable building block to reap these benefits."ⁱ
