Vibe Coding, Prompting, and MCP Servers for QA Testers
Swati Seela
QA Leader - Practical AI for Testers
Go beyond prompting: build AI workflows that make you a stronger tester.
AI is changing what testers can build and investigate, but knowing a few prompts is only a starting point. Testers need to guide AI with project context, connect it to useful tools, and check its output against real evidence.
In this workshop, you’ll practice those skills by building a small QA tool, creating reusable prompts, and connecting a read-only MCP server. You’ll leave with a practical workflow you can adapt to your own testing work—and a clearer sense of where your judgment matters most.
What you’ll learn
Go from asking AI for testing help to building a QA tool, connecting test data with MCP, and checking every result with evidence.
Learn your way around a new test automation repo or framework.
Go from zero to your first automation test with a coding assistant.
See how AI assistance makes test creation less dependent on a particular language or tool.
Add project context and testing conventions.
Tell Copilot which tools, patterns, and rules to follow.
Compare its output before and after adding instructions.
Write prompts for recurring QA tasks.
Use templates to supply the right context consistently.
Adapt them for your own project.
Build a local MCP tool that generates tests, coverage or code gatekeepers.
Configure an API key without putting it in source control.
Use the tools for testing workflows
Workshop agenda
Day 1- Vibe coding and prompting
Explore an unfamiliar automation repo with AI, create your first API or UI test, and learn prompting techniques to question, refine, and improve a coding assistant’s output.
Day 2- Project context and MCP
Give Copilot lasting project context, create reusable prompts, build a read-only MCP tool for test data, and apply the workflow to tests or a code quality checker. Ends with Q&A.
