Helix: An Autonomous QA Platform
Helix is PiAI’s AI-powered autonomous testing solution designed to transform how software QA is delivered. Instead of manually writing, maintaining, and executing test scripts, Helix leverages advanced AI agents to automate and optimise the entire testing lifecycle, from user story to continuous test execution.
Why choose Helix?
Here are the three big wins we’ve seen from our clients using Helix:
Reduce OpEx
Significantly reduce operational costs and manual effort through intelligent automation.
Accelerate Delivery
Speed up delivery cycles and improve time-to-market.
Boost Quality
Enhance software quality and compliance with self-healing, AI-driven testing.
Traditional QA vs. Helix
Manual QA testing is slow, costly, and brittle. It can consume anywhere from 15-50% of development budgets while delaying releases when things go wrong. Traditional automation struggles because scripts break with even minor UI changes, requiring frequent manual updates and creating scalability issues.
The impact?
High operational costs, missed deadlines, and reduced confidence in quality.
The solution?
Helix. An autonomous, self-healing, scalable solution that learns to work for you. AI-driven testing catches bugs early, creates and maintains testing lifecycles from user stories written in plain English, and can self-heal and rewrite its own test script when it encounters something new or unexpected.
How does it work?
1. Human-Crafted User Stories
Your team writes user stories in plain language.
2. AI Agent planning
Helix’s Planner Agent interprets these stories, navigates your application, and creates detailed test plans.
3. Automated Script Generation
A Test Writer Agent turns plans into executable Playwright scripts.
4. Continuous Test Execution
A test runner executes the tests indefinitely or at a frequency you set.
5. Self-Healing Automation
A test runner executes the tests indefinitely or at a frequency you set.
6. Human Oversight
Your QA team can control the level of autonomy and review, approve, or intervene at any stage.
