How Agentic AI Pentesting is Transforming Security: Is it Going to Replace Pentesters?

Agentic AI pentesting is transforming security by moving beyond traditional, point-in-time assessments to continuous, autonomous attack simulation. It can map attack surfaces, chain vulnerabilities, and validate real risks at scale. While it won't replace human pentesters, it will amplify their capabilities, enabling faster, deeper, and more effective security testing.

Software Testing Life Cycle: Building Reliable Software From Planning to Release

The Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) is a structured process that helps teams ensure software quality through different testing phases such as requirement analysis, test planning, test case development, environment setup, test execution, and test closure. It enables organizations to identify defects early, improve test coverage, and deliver stable applications with greater confidence.

Why SaaS Startups Need End to End Testing Early

SaaS startups move fast, but rapid deployments can introduce bugs that hurt user trust and retention. End to end testing helps teams validate complete user journeys like signup, payments, and integrations before release. By adopting automated testing early, startups can reduce production issues, ship faster with confidence, and scale their products more reliably.

Making Test Management Tools Actually Work: From Tracking to Real Insight

Understand why test management tools fail and how leading teams make them work. Practical strategies for tracking, insights, and data-driven testing decisions.

Test Management Tools That Work: From Tracking to Insight
DevOpsDayLA is Southern California's premier conference focused on the human side of technology delivery. For 15 years, we've brought together SoCal practitioners who understand that great software isn't just about tools, it's about people working together effectively.

The 2026 Lens: DevOps in an AI World: You're working in a world where AI is everywhere, embedded in your tools, requested by your management, and reshaping how teams deliver software. Whether you're embracing these changes or navigating the challenges they create, your experience matters.

We're looking for stories about how you and your organizations are adapting your mindsets, processes, and team dynamics in this rapidly evolving landscape. How did your team integrate AI into existing workflows? What changed about collaboration when AI entered the picture? Where do humans remain critical in automated processes? How do you build the next generation of engineers when entry-level work is automated? What are the real implementation challenges you're facing in Southern California's entertainment, gaming, aerospace, retail, healthcare, and manufacturing companies?

What makes DevOpsDayLA different: We focus on culture, collaboration, and cross-industry implementation stories rather than pure technical deep-dives. We're all about the people and processes that make technology successful in an AI world, not the technology itself.

We especially welcome new speakers, under-represented voices, and fresh perspectives from across SoCal's diverse tech landscape.
