Join Alan Richardson and guest Jerimiah Ham, developer of Quern, as they discuss testing tools, AI in software testing, and Jermiah's new AI mobile tool designed with AI Agents as primary user.
Quern, an open-source, local API and MCP server for working with iOS and Android devices, simulators, and emulators. Quern gives an AI agent access to UI controls, screenshots, logs, and network traffic, turning mobile testing from a sequence of manual setup tasks into a much more observable workflow.
Jeremiah describes the approach as pairing with AI rather than handing over control, using the agent to augment human observation while keeping the tester in the driver’s seat. The episode also looks at turning exploratory interactions into repeatable scripts, the limits of current models, and why mobile testing may be entering a very different kind of workflow.
