As applications grow more complex, QA teams must verify that all critical functionalities are properly tested. However, identifying gaps in test coverage can be difficult when dealing with thousands of test cases, features, and workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artificial intelligence is transforming how organizations manage this challenge. AI-driven test coverage analysis helps QA teams identify untested areas of an application, prioritize testing efforts, and improve overall software quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide explains how AI detects test coverage gaps and why intelligent coverage analysis is becoming essential for modern test automation strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_Test_Coverage_Gaps\"><\/span>What Are Test Coverage Gaps?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Test coverage gaps occur when certain features, workflows, or code components are not adequately tested.
