Building an agentic SDLC with a QA engineering mindset

Ryan welcomes Suneet Malhotra, Senior Manager of Test Engineering at Motorola Solutions, to chat about building end-to-end agentic SDLC pipelines using MCPs, using Cohen’s kappa to evaluate multiple LLMs-as-judges, and how you can improve requirements by shifting QA left through a specification enrichment stage immediately after the design phase.

Episode notes:

You can learn more about Suneet’s five-agent SDLC (and see the companion code) on his GitHub. 

Read the papers discussed: Cross-Layer Observability for LLM-Assisted Test Automation: A Reference Architecture and Web Feasibility Study and Cross-Layer Observability for LLM-Assisted Test Automation — Reference Implementation and Evaluation Data (v1.5.2, JSS In-Practice).

Connect with Suneet on LinkedIn and see more of his work on his website. 

Congrats to user Sanjay for winning a Great Question badge for asking What does it mean to fork on GitHub?.
