A series of progressive steps starting from the planning of the software application, coding, testing, quality check, implementation and support, software development is a long and aimful process.
It involves as many people during the development and after the configuration. One may say, it’s a never-ending process of development and iterations. The growing trend has pushed software development companies to implement trends into software development and make it applicable as per users’ interest.
Such adoption is basically in business interest as it fills the market gap of tough-end competition creeping up. The curious nature of users and customers are another element that is necessary to be looked at.
To sustain long in the competitive environment, the business seeks support from software development companies, and they offer solutions that are trendy, fascinating and digital.
Fact Alert: The Wall Street Journal estimates that AI-enabled tools are projected to pull $2.9 billion in business revenue by 2021.
Artificial Intelligence is one such trend that has taken the industry by storm ever since its start with the game Pokémon go. The popularity of the game was high and the use of AI technology in the game is what made it stood out in the crowd.
The users were immensely impressed and expected the use of technology in other segments too. Businesses were smart enough to realize the importance of the situation and bring into software applications. Since then, there’s no looking back.
How AI is Changing the Shape of the Software Development Industry
In the blog, we shall shed some light on how AI is changing the shape of the software development industry. Let’s begin!
1. Programming Assistants
How wonderful it would be to have an intelligent assistant to align the tasks and manage them effectively daily? Well, AI has brought Intelligent Programming Assistants (PA) into the software development industry.
With the support of such intelligent PAs, it becomes easier to develop software that is equipped with assistants guiding the users and managing their tasks on a daily basis effectively.
These PAs also offer real-time support, recommend best practices, suggest relevant documents to read, measure the outcomes of the decisions and manage the activities single-handedly.
AI-infused PA’s are an advantage to the software development companies in developing software that not only promotes the success and creativity of the business but also supports users’ interest and expectations.
2. Machine Learning
By now, most of the world is already aware of what machine learning is. It is the machine which makes the decision based on the historic references and understanding of the user’s behavior and pattern. How interesting!
Further, a software development company can create software applications that can take strategic decisions on behalf of humans by reading the pattern of their previous history with the application. AI-infused machine learning software applications make it easier for users to derive any decisions without wasting too much time.
Software development companies are developing software applications infused with machine learning as they are aware that users are more active than ever, and they would rather opt for a solution that is quick, decisive and prompt.
3. Automation
What do we expect most from technology? Obviously, it is the automation of most of the tasks. In software development, as already explication, it is not one task to look at and complete.
It involves more processes like planning, developing, coding, testing, debugging, maintenance and more. AI enables software development companies to ease out the process by introducing automation throughout the development process.
- Automate Code Generation: Once the machine learns the code pattern, the AI system could generate codes by putting together some predefined modules. It’s the same as putting the Lego blocks to complete the structure. This saves a lot of time of coders and helps them code for the application much faster.
- Automate Testing: Testing is one crucial step in the development process. Without testing, one cannot be sure if they are delivering the right software application without any bugs and errors. AI system can automate testing in the development lifecycle by understanding at past logs and generating a list of test cases automatically to run through the system.
4. Strategic Decision Making
It’s the decision of the leadership that runs the business and marks its success and growth eventually. One wrong decision can alter the growth of the business and could lead to its downfall.
This makes the decision-making process extremely critical and important for the software development companies as well. Developers have to go through a lot of decision making during the development phase.
AI-infused machine learning can help development companies to make decisions that speeds up the development process, deliver the application to business in less time, and increase revenue for both the company and business within a short span of time.
Conclusion
Summing up, who could deny the power of AI in the market. When used wisely, technology can prove to be the best decision taken by the business. It’s the job of software development companies how are they incorporating the technology in the development process.
AI could enhance the development process by monitoring their records, track their current phase and plan their future outcomes. How reasonable does that sound! One technology could not only benefit the business but also the development company as they get more than they expect.
