Scope

Master thesis, 2 students completing 30 credits (20 weeks) each

Background

Generative AI systems are transforming many industries, especially in areas such as chatbots and API-driven conversational platforms. At Axis Communications, our generative AI team is at the cutting edge of developing innovative conversational AI solutions for a variety of applications. As AI systems become more complex, ensuring the quality of these systems is crucial, especially when it comes to testing natural language processing (NLP) models and API integrations.

In this thesis, we want to investigate innovative approaches to Quality Assurance (QA) within generative AI. The primary focus will be on testing conversational agents (chatbots) and their underlying APIs. The project involves designing test frameworks that can automate API testing, verify chatbot accuracy, and ensure system performance at scale.

Goal

The aim of this thesis is to develop and implement a testing framework specifically designed for QA in generative AI systems. The focus will be on API testing, chatbot performance, and overall system reliability. The students will explore the following key areas:

• Automating API testing for AI-driven platforms.
• Evaluating conversational agents’ ability to handle varied and unpredictable inputs.
• Investigating load and performance testing for AI-based services.
• Researching best practices for AI model validation and ensuring high-quality conversational outputs.

The students will be expected to research existing literature on QA for AI systems and propose one or more testing methodologies. These methodologies will be evaluated based on criteria such as effectiveness, scalability, and reliability through experimental testing.

Who Are You?

For this thesis proposal, we are targeting students with an interest in generative AI and software testing. You are likely pursuing a Master’s program in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. Experience or coursework in software testing, AI, or NLP will be useful. You should have basic knowledge of API testing and a desire to work with test automation tools. Familiarity with chatbot frameworks, API testing tools, or test automation frameworks is an advantage.

You are ideally living in, or near, Lund, or willing to relocate. The work will primarily take place at Axis Communications in Lund.
