AI Testing Is Breaking Your Pipeline. Fix Quality Before It's Too Late with Eric Minick

AI coding tools are helping teams move faster than ever, but there's a hidden cost. In this episode, we break down new insights from a DevOps industry report revealing a growing "velocity paradox": teams are shipping more code, but experiencing more failures, rollbacks, and burnout. You'll discover why AI adoption is heavily skewed toward coding, but not testing, pipelines, or observability, and how that imbalance is creating fragile systems that break under pressure. More importantly, you'll learn what high-performing teams are doing differently to maintain quality while scaling speed. What You'll Discover: ✔️ Why AI is increasing deployment failures (and how to stop it) ✔️ The "velocity vs quality" trap hurting modern DevOps teams ✔️ How to reduce flaky tests and pipeline instability ✔️ Why observability and feature flags are now critical, not optional ✔️ Practical ways to improve your CI/CD pipeline for AI-driven development ✔️ The role of QA engineers in the age of AI (and why it's growing, not shrinking) If you're a tester, automation engineer, or DevOps leader trying to keep up
