Traditional software testing is struggling to keep pace as autonomous agents introduce multi-path execution where multiple sequences of actions can lead to the same correct result. GitHub suggests moving away from brittle, step-by-step scripts toward an independent trust layer that validates essential outcomes rather than rigid paths. This approach aims to eliminate false negatives caused by environmental noise or minor timing variations in agentic workflows.
