Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges as the latest technology across all software industries as well as domains. It is being leveraged in the field of software testing to ease the automation testing process and deliver more quality outcomes. The application of AI in software testing will make the entire testing process faster, clearer, easier, and within budget. This paper makes an effort to elaborate on the significance of performance testing in the field of software testing using AI. This paper represents a comprehensive review of AI/ML techniques in software testing.
