Learn to test ai code professionally with test cases and test plans, and master debugging while understanding ai processes to prevent errors from insufficient context or assumptions.
Explore the causes of AI hallucinations, including confident fabrications, knowledge gap filling, outdated information, and subtle distortions, and learn to verify context before using AI outputs.
Discover how AI often outputs outdated code due to training data cutoffs, and learn to verify latest data and library updates to catch and fix these issues early.
Identify AI knowledge gaps caused by temporal drift by verifying the AI uses current software versions. Document technologies and their versions, then compare with latest release to prevent compatibility conflicts.
Explore how an AI-generated test plan outlines 52 automated back-end tests and 40 manual front-end tests, with a downloadable document for QA collaboration and code quality.
Learn to participate in engineering decisions with AI by debugging collaboratively, using screenshots to explain errors, and cross-testing with additional AIs like Claude to reach better solutions.
Learn how to uncover and manage AI assumptions that cause errors by eliciting project, code, solution, and business-case assumptions, then label and correct them to reduce misreads.
Back up your code with ai checkpoints and manual saves, and connect to GitHub for reliable rollbacks. Commit and push to a repository to maintain a secondary backup.
Evaluate AI-written code for Python, Rust, or enterprise software by starting with a precise spec and logging and comments, then second AI review to verify variables, environments, and edge-case testing.

AI coding tools can dramatically speed up development, but they also introduce hidden bugs, incorrect assumptions, and risky code that can break your application if not properly tested.
In this course, you’ll learn how to systematically test, debug, and validate AI-generated code so you can use tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and Replit AI with confidence.
Instead of blindly trusting AI outputs, you’ll develop a professional workflow for catching errors early, verifying assumptions, and preventing costly mistakes.
What you’ll learn:
How AI coding assistants make mistakes (and why)
How to detect hallucinated APIs, outdated code, and wrong assumptions
A step-by-step workflow for debugging AI-generated code
How to test AI code using unit tests, integration tests, and manual validation
How to write better prompts to reduce errors upfront
How to safely refactor and improve AI-generated code
Common AI coding pitfalls across frontend, backend, APIs, and databases
How to verify AI outputs before deploying to production
Who this course is for:
Developers using AI coding tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, or Replit
Beginners learning to code with AI assistance
Professionals who want to avoid bugs and production issues
Anyone using “vibe coding” workflows and wants to make them reliable
Why this course matters:
AI is a powerful coding assistant, but it’s not always correct.
The difference between amateur and professional use of AI tools is verification and testing.
By the end of this course, you’ll know how to:
Trust AI when appropriate
Question it when necessary
And catch errors before they cost you time, money, or reputation
