II.CURRENT CHALLENGES

A number of challenges are associated with Healthcare DevOps where Quality Assurance (QA) is of a great concern because of following the manual testing methods. Automated testing is slow, error-prone, and cumbersome at best, and nearly disastrous at worst when applied to a highly regulated, safety-conscious industry that requires the highest standardsofdataprotection[1].Inmostcases,thesebottlenecksleadtolatesoftwaredelivery,highcosts,andinadequate testing. When applications gain higher complexities within the scope of healthcare, the drawbacks of manual testing becomeapparenttoscaleupandbecomemorereliable.

III.AI-DRIVEN SOLUTIONS

AI is revolutionising QA in DevOps to a great extent due to its capabilities of coming up with new concepts concerning automation in fields such as health where such components as reliability, precision and compliance are of paramount importance. As software systems become critical to healthcare organizations and outcomes for patients, artificial intelligenceisfillingthegaps,optimizingcoverage,anddrivinggreateraccuracy.

Predictive analytics, automating test generation, intelligent anomaly detection have been made possible by machine learning making it central to the modern-day QA process. One of them is testing pattern discovery, which serves to find patternsintestcases,logs,coderepositories,anddefectreportsofaproject[4]

AI on the other hand, can always observe and analyze application behaviour and understand which patterns are appropriate and which are not, without having to be coded.

Automatic test case generators solve this problem in that they automatically filter and prioritize the set of test cases.Itmeansthat,basedonthechangesincodeandthedependencytreeaswellasthehistoricaldataondefectsfound, AI can trace which parts of the application will most likely be impacted by updates, which areas the QA team needs to focuson.Thishasthebenefitofsavingmuchtimeandtestingeffortwhileatthesametimeretainingmuchassurancethat regressiontestingisrevealingalltheproblems,withlessincreaseintestingexpenditurethanbroadnon-targetedtests.

The testing scenarios that are unique to the healthcare sector give a vivid outlook at how the AI based solutions can outcompete the traditional QA issues [7] The application of Salesforce in the healthcare industry has been mainly for patient management and reference, analytics. It has reciprocity high degree of configuration This is because each healthcare organization adapts selling and marketing functions using Salesforce according to different requirements and needswhiletheycreatevarioussellingprocessesandintegrationneeds,andconfigurations.

IV.AUTOMATING SALESFORCE TESTING

Salesforce has a very significant position in the healthcare industry acting as a competitive tool for handling patients, organizing tasks and smoothly interacting with the EHR systems. Hence its practicality and ability to address multiple healthcare organization’s requirements makes for ideal solutions; however, the very same factors make it a nightmare whenitcomestotesting.

TherequirementsoftestingSalesforcewhichincludetestingintegrations,testingworkflows,testingdataconsistencyand integrityofcustomconfigurations,amongothersisacumbersome,tiresomeanderrorproneactivitywhendonemanually [9]. However, now with the help of artificial intelligence (AI), testing of Salesforce scenarios is changing its approach, allowingautomatization,scalabilityandaccuracywhichwerebeyondthepossibilitybefore.

Thefirstthingthat needsto beknownwhileautomatingtestscenariosinSalesforceiswhatspecificitiesof this platform aretobemet.Whilemostsoftwareapplicationsarerelativelystatic,comparedtothem,Salesforceenvironmentsarevery complex since it is constantly updated, contain custom applications, and has complex interaction with other third-party tools. Such characteristics render the classic, passive test scripts invalid, as they are unable to change in line with the switchesinworkflowsorconfigurations.

International Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN:2395-0056

Volume: 12 Issue: 01 | Jan 2025 www.irjet.net p-ISSN:2395-0072

For instance, some of the ways healthcare organization can use salesforce include: Patient referrals, a mechanism for tracking of care plans, and compatibility with telehealth systems. Every of these functionalities is based on specific predefinedworkflowsanddatacorrespondenceswhichhavetobecarefullyvalidated.Additionally,organisationsthatrely on salesforce update their platform at least twice a year with new features and functionalities that can sometimes cause chaos to prior workflows. This makes regressive testing crucial since updates might damage the system in one way or another[10].

These problems are well solved by AI-based solutions focusing on the effective implementation of end-to-end testing on Salesforce landscapes. In this case, end-to-end testing covers all features of a Salesforce implementation, from the frontend,allthewaytotheback-end.

TheothercategoriesofAI-basedtoolsusemachinelearningtechniquestoscantheapplicationprocessinglogic,recognize dependencies,andcreateequivalenttestcasesthatreflectauser’sinteractionwithanapplication.Forinstance,thesystem can mimic a healthcare provider interacting with a Salesforce interface especially designed for providers to book an appointment,modifytherecordsandissueareferral.Thesearebetterthanthemanualtestcasesbecausetheyarefaster intermsofexecutionandtheydonotcontainhumanerror.

ThemostimportantfactorinSalesforcetestingisAI’scapabilitytomanagechangesintheenvironment.AI-basedsolutions are different from traditional automation tools that embed script-based instructions by directly writing the code for test casesandscripts[11].Thisisknownasself-healingwhereoncethetestscriptsarecreatedremainvalidevenwhenthere isalotofchangestotheapplication.

For instance, if a healthcare organization adjusts its Salesforce setting to include a new telehealth feature, the AI system will identify the change and adapt the tested cases necessary for testing the enhanced feature. This lessens the maintenance overhead that comes with conventional automation and guarantees that testing adapts with the fastchangingHealthcareSoftware.

Regression testing is another important area where solutions with the use of artificial intelligence out-perform in the Salesforce spaces. Regression testing means retesting that has been conducted earlier to check that new code changes, additions, new modifications, etc do not contain new errors to the current system. In healthcare field, the regression testingplaysprominentrolebecauseeventheminordisturbancesinthesoftwareapplicationanditsfunctionalitiescould leadtoaseriousimpact,includingthedelayinpatienttreatmentorinaccuratepatientdata.

But executing that number of test cases necessary for performing the regression testing is oftentimes impossible for the manual QA teams. In this regard, AI-driven tools overcome this challenge by determining how best to schedule and prioritizeregressiontestcasesanditseffects.

AI systems examine changes to the code and the application’s dependencies, and the past defect history to determine whereintheSalesforceimplementationchangeismostlikelytohaveanimpact.Forinstance,ifahealthcareorganization makeschangesintheSalesforceplatforminordertoimprovetheschedulingofthepatients,thentheAIsystemwillfocus ontestcasesthatareassociatedwiththeappointmentmakingandcalendarsystem,andnotificationsoftheslots.

Perhaps the greatest benefit is that AI-driven Salesforce testing can prove the complexity of interconnections that has become the hallmark of healthcare software environments. While as a rule, Salesforce acts as an integrator and works together with EHR systems, billing platforms, or patient communication tools [12]. To do this, it is crucial that these integrationsworkcorrectlytoallowefficientandreliableintegrationbetweentasksandsystems

The use of AI solutions in testing for Salesforce within health care has been further backed by the increase of integrated solutions and platforms. Select tools like Copado Robotic testing and Provar are explicitly built for Salesforce environments that provide AI features for test case creation, running, as well as updating. They incorporate with the DevOps pipeline that means future testing can be continuous and the QA processes could correspond to the fast-track environmentofhealthcaresoftwaredevelopment.

In the same manner, some other testing frameworks are TensorFlow and PyTorch, in which organizations can create specific machinelearningmodelstoadapttothespecificSalesforceenvironment,somethingthatageneraltestingtoolis incapableofoffering.

There are some issues to be aware of when adopting AI testing in healthcare to Salesforce.

What happens to data used in AI learning models must also be regulated closely with adherence of ethical and legal principles regarding patients’ information [14]. In addition, the implementation of new AI-based solutions in the QA processes must be carried out with the necessary preparation and introduction of change management tools to promote thebestresultsoftheautomationoftheQAprocess.

Thispaperthereforesuggeststhat,throughtheadoptionoftheAItechnology,maximumSalesforcequalityandcompliance can be attained to the advantage of patient care and overall organisational performance in the healthcare setting. With such increasing pressure being placed on healthcare software, AI-driven testing will become a critical factor in guaranteeingtheongoingcredibilityofSalesforceastheplatformfordeliveringnewhealthcaresolutions.

VII. RESULT AND DISCUSSION

FromtheapplicationsofqualityassuranceandtestingsolutionspoweredbyAIinhealthcareDevOps,itcanidentifythat these applications can bring about better effectiveness, precision and credibility truly. The adoption of AI on the automation of testing procedures significantly shortens testing cycles reducing manual input by as much as 70%. Previously manual and error prone, end-to-end testing scenarios of actual end user engagements with healthcare SW platformssuchasSalesforceareprocessedthroughAIbasedtoolsleveragingonactualusecaseinteractions.

This also guarantees efficient check on the integration of the various workflows as well as reduction on possibility of inaccurate data that may affect patients. Moreover, regression testing facilitated by machine learning enhances test prioritization so that those healthcare organizations that undergo changes can target the most severe areas. The study shows that AI always detects and fixes problems before they occur and much faster than other methods, which can help avoiddisruptionstosoftwareimplementationsandservices.
