As developers build and release APIs faster in an Agentic AI assisted world, many enterprises are having to reshape existing API testing to ensure their APIs don’t lose quality and scale. Existing functional tests and unit tests may not suffice in identifying API quality introduced via agentic development. 

ReadyAPI’s performance test module can build an extensive test suite based off existing infrastructure to capture minute slow-downs or bottlenecks. By building these tests into CI/CD pipelines organisations can monitor and report on server capacity, ensure customer SLAs are maintained and verify that code changes will withstand high spikes of usage.  

In this 30 mins session, you will learn: 
  • Why functional tests alone can’t assure 100% API quality with AI generated code 
  • Performance testing for the AI world: how to deliver APIs with production ready confidence 
  • How ReadyAPI’s performance test module builds on your existing test infrastructure to catch quality issues before they reach production  
  • How to maintain application integrity: ensuring continuous, measurable assurance that your software performs as intended 
Who should attend:
  • QA engineers responsible for end-to-end API testing 
  • Performance engineers or SDET engineers responsible for catching bottlenecks before they hit production 

Whether your development team is working in REST APIs, gRPC, Kafka or GraphQL, your API, it is undeniable, in future, your current API tests will execute against AI generated code. Even if your functional and unit tests verify it’s behavior, how do you know whether it will hold up on your API’s busiest periods? That’s where ReadyAPI’s performance testing can make the difference by catching this degradation before it hits production.

Join SmartBear’s Vyshnavi Dabbir and Yousaf Nabi for a live session on the moment your API testing stops matching what’s running in production, and what to do before that gap becomes an outage. On September 15, 2026, we’ll walk through why 63% of APIs drift from their tested behavior within 90 days, the specific failure patterns behind most real-world breakdowns, and how testing

Same Spec, Zero Drift: ​Keeping API Tests in Sync with AI and MCP​

The challenge  Your OpenAPI spec changes on a Tuesday. Your test suite finds three sprints later, usually in production.  That gap between what your API actually does and what your tests assume it does is the sync gap. It is expensive. 41% of APIs drift within 30 days, and teams still lose a quarter to half of their QA capacity just keeping test suites current
