Software developers assessing deployment risks can now evaluate consolidated development telemetry through the Release Readiness Index, a capability introduced by PractiTest to guide quality decisions across engineering pipelines. Built as an analytical layer within the vendor’s wider QA Intelligence initiative, the sy
The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) imposes 24-hour incident reporting rules and strict supply chain oversight on software and hardware makers. Manufacturers selling products with digital elements inside the EU must establish security processes across the entire product lifecycle, accounting for maintenance and patches u
Ramen has released its Aura game development agent for Unity and Unreal Engine with automated playtesting verification. The commercial 1.0 release introduces a redesigned interface, persistent project memory, multi-project environments, and expanded platform availability across macOS and Windows. Ramen has also launche
Oracle has released JDK 27 into general availability, enabling default compact headers and quantum-ready TLS key exchange across enterprise Java environments. The production distribution delivers nine targeted Java Enhancement Proposals (JEPs), spanning runtime memory optimisations, compiler updates, and post-quantum n
Synthesized has announced Test Data Agent, an infrastructure capability being developed to create realistic test data and system conditions for evaluating AI agents before they are deployed into production environments. The product entered limited availability for existing clients and ecosystem partners recently, with
OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 model family is now available in Kiro, the AWS agentic coding service built for spec-driven development and testing. The update brings three models from OpenAI’s latest flagship series – Sol, Terra, and Luna – into Kiro. AWS and OpenAI describe the pairing as a way to help developers produce code with
Cycode has launched Agentic Code Scanning, a system that decides which AI or rule-based engine reviews code and at what cost. “Nobody got into application security to become a model economist,” said Lior Levy, Co-Founder and CEO of Cycode. “Point a frontier model at everything and the bill compounds with every commit,
AI agents now rank among the top tools developers use for writing and testing code, but manual checks still gate what reaches production. The State of Development 2026 report from Temporal puts numbers behind that pattern, drawing on a survey of 554 engineers and technical leaders who currently use AI agents. Its openi
AWS has published a reference implementation for testing AI agents through GitHub Actions, allowing developers to run automated evaluations as part of a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. The workflow can fail an evaluation job when an agent’s scores fall below a configured threshold. The
Cursor has expanded its self-hosted cloud agent infrastructure, adding dynamically scheduled worker pools and support for running agent workloads across cloud and infrastructure platforms. The update allows development teams to manage the machines that execute tool calls from Cursor’s cloud agents while continuing to s
The race to build better AI software has largely focused on the model: which one reasons better? Codes better? Costs less? At Adronite, our testing points to another major efficiency lever that gets far less attention: the harness surrounding the model. Our internal benchmarking suggests the choice of harness can mater
First Mate Technologies has detailed a software development workflow that uses separate AI models to write and verify code. One model handles implementation, while another designs test cases and reviews the finished code before changes are cleared for merging. The company used the process on QueueMate, a restaurant que
