Noida (Uttar Pradesh) [India] / San Francisco [California], November 14: TestMu AI (formerly LambdaTest), the Agentic AI Quality Engineering platform, today released the State of AI in Quality Engineering 2026 report. It finds that 81% of software teams have merged AI-generated code or tests they did not fully understand, and 44% report more escaped defects or production incidents as AI-written code has grown. AI now writes much of the code and many of the tests, yet most teams still verify that work with a person after the fact, or with another AI model.
