  • Sauce Labs CEO, Prince Kohli, Says $1 Trillion Software Quality Industry Has Been “Building Wrong” for 20 Years

    The new Sauce AI for Test Authoring launch targets the most labor-intensive slice of the 22% of IT budgets spent on quality assurance, by shifting engineering teams from writing test cases to specifying business intent that the platform autonomously turns into self-improving test suites.

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Sauce Labs Inc., the world’s largest full-lifecycle, test automation platform, today announced the general availability of Sauce AI for Test Authoring, an AI Agent that translates business intent into framework-agnostic executable test suites that can be run instantly on Sauce Labs’ virtual and real-device clouds.

    This launch introduces a new paradigm for DevOps: Intent-Driven Testing, designed to bridge the “Velocity and Quality Gap”, the widening distance between how fast AI generates code and how slowly teams can validate it for enterprise-grade quality.

    High-quality test creation is one of software development’s most persistent bottlenecks. Developers spend 30%+ of their time writing and maintaining test suites, while non-technical team members, business analysts, product managers, and manual QA testers with deep domain knowledge remain locked out of automation entirely due to the coding expertise required.

    Disrupting the $1 Trillion Quality Assurance & Engineering Spend
    Today, Fortune 2000 companies dedicate 22% to 25% of their total IT budgets to Quality Assurance & Engineering, representing over $1 trillion in aggregate annual spend across global enterprise IT. As these enterprises adopt GenAI to ship code at up to 10x their historical velocity, they face several key challenges:

    • Test Authoring Speed and Ensuring Quality: 89% of CIOs report that “Test Authoring Speed” is now the primary hurdle to AI-driven delivery

    • The Coverage Deficit: Automated test coverage for complex journeys typically plateaus at under 35%

    • The Maintenance Trap: Teams spend 40% of their working hours fixing “flaky” tests or maintaining legacy scripts

    “AI can generate millions of lines of code in minutes,” said Dr. Prince Kohli, CEO of Sauce Labs. “The question for enterprises is: Can you verify it and trust it with your business? We are solving this problem, permanently.”

    Reinventing for the AI Era: Intent-Driven Testing
    Today, Sauce Labs is reinventing the future of test automation with Intent-Driven Testing that replaces brittle, hand-coded test scripts with autonomous, self-improving test suites and validation.

    Sauce AI for Test Authoring automatically understands intended application behavior by scanning the application workflow or interpreting specifications written by product managers or designs from tools such as Figma. In addition, it allows engineers, application developers and product managers to describe application behavior in natural language. The platform then autonomously generates complete, executable test suites for web, Android, and iOS, with the option to execute them in the Sauce Labs Test Cloud, and automatically reports the results, including insights on where to look and what to fix. Key capabilities include:

    • 90%+ Faster Automated Test Case Generation: Achieving real-time test creation from product specifications.

    • Resilient, Stable Test Scripts: Framework-agnostic tests built to adapt to application changes, with significantly fewer flaky failures and less maintenance overhead.

    • 99%+ Automatic Coverage: Eliminating “blind spots” in the user journey.

    • Built-in Review and Editing: Ensuring human oversight and control over AI-generated tests, allowing teams to validate, refine, and maintain reliability.

    • Autonomous Learning Loop: Continuous feedback that improves test accuracy.

    The Data Moat: Deep Domain-Specific Testing Expertise
    Sauce AI for Test Authoring surpasses general-purpose AI with a superior understanding of application workflow and user intent, generating stable OS-agnostic and device-agnostic tests. Fueled by the industry’s most robust proprietary dataset, 8.7 billion real-world test runs, this “Data Moat” enables 41% faster root-cause analysis than general-purpose LLMs. Trusted by 80% of the world’s top ten financial institutions, Sauce Labs offers enterprise-grade platform capabilities for complex software environments.

    “Setting up mobile testing is traditionally painful and can take days and weeks. Sauce AI for Test Authoring’s no-code capability gives our team something they simply weren’t able to do before. It turns a major bottleneck into an automated process that anyone can navigate,” said a Director of Engineering at a Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company participating in the Sauce AI for Test Authoring early access program.

  • Voxelmaps Launches Real-Time City Digital Twin for San José, Powered by NVIDIA AI

    Voxelmaps and NVIDIA partner to give city teams real-time 3D visibility into streets, infrastructure, and urban change – with natural-language querying built in.

    SAN JOSE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Voxelmaps today announced the deployment of a real-time city digital twin for the City of San José, developed in collaboration with NVIDIA. The initiative combines continuous street-level LiDAR and imagery capture through the Voxelmaps Reality Capture Network with NVIDIA Jetson platform and NVIDIA accelerated computing to create a living digital model of the city that updates continuously as urban environments change.

    The data captured through the Reality Capture Network is processed through Voxelmaps City Insights, its 4D real-time city digital twin platform, enabling municipal teams to work from an always-current view of streets, infrastructure, and urban change over time.

    The deployment demonstrates how AI-powered digital twins can help cities better understand and manage complex urban environments. By combining continuous sensing, high-resolution spatial data, and accelerated AI computing, the platform creates a living model of the city that can support infrastructure monitoring, urban planning, and new forms of human-AI interaction with the built environment.

    “At city scale, the challenge is not creating a 3D model once – it’s keeping it live and current,” said Peter Atalla, CEO of Voxelmaps. “Voxelmaps Reality Capture Network, using our SYMBO Duo Realtime 3D Mapping Sensors, combined with NVIDIA Jetson at the edge and NVIDIA-accelerated computing across the workflow, enables a city digital twin that stays measurable, refreshable, and practical for day-to-day city operations.”

    Multimodal City Intelligence at Scale

    The digital twin is built from continuously captured street-level data collected through the Voxelmaps Reality Capture Network, which uses SYMBO Duo Realtime 3D Mapping Sensors to capture LiDAR and high-resolution imagery.

    Within Voxelmaps City Insights, this data is fused into a continuously updated urban model that combines:

    • LiDAR point clouds for precise geometry and measurement of infrastructure and urban assets

    • High-resolution imagery to enable feature detection and semantic understanding

    • 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) workflows to generate photorealistic visualization of city environments

    Unlike traditional mesh-based modeling approaches, which are difficult to maintain at city scale, 3D Gaussian Splatting enables continuously refreshed visual representations that better support incremental updates as new data is captured.

    Natural-Language Interaction with City Data

    Voxelmaps has integrated NVIDIA Cosmos Reason 2, an open, customizable reasoning vision-language model (VLM), enabling natural-language interaction with visual and temporal city data within Voxelmaps City Insights.

    Authorized city users can query the digital twin using everyday language to support operational awareness, planning, and infrastructure management.

    Example queries include:

    • “Show me where roadworks have changed curb access since last month.”

    • “Identify corridors with low streetlighting coverage relative to comparable neighborhoods.”

    • “List blocks with repeated pavement defects and estimate the affected surface area.”

    Looking forward, Voxelmaps is working through integration with latest version of NVIDIA Metropolis Blueprint for video search and summarization (VSS) to enable the deployment of video analytics AI agents.

    Supporting City Operations and Planning

    Voxelmaps’ work with NVIDIA and the City of San José emphasizes measurable outputs, traceability to source data, and clear governance over how insights are generated and used.

    The platform is designed to support a range of municipal workflows, including:

    • Improved visibility into street-level conditions and urban change

    • Proactive infrastructure maintenance and asset monitoring

    • Broader access to spatial intelligence beyond specialist GIS teams

    • Data-driven planning and decision-making to improve residential services

    San José – home to many leading AI and technology companies – provides a real-world testbed for next-generation AI-powered city infrastructure and digital twin technologies.

    Scaling the Reality Capture Network

    Voxelmaps plans to expand the Voxelmaps Reality Capture Network, using its SYMBO Duo Realtime 3D Mapping Sensors, and deploy Voxelmaps City Insights across 100 U.S. cities over the next two years, supporting a new generation of real-time digital twins designed for urban operations.

    About Voxelmaps

    Voxelmaps digitalizes the physical world for Physical AI, enabling the creation of real-time, living models of cities and complex environments. Through the Voxelmaps Reality Capture Network and Voxelmaps City Insights, the company produces high-fidelity, time-aware (4D) digital representations that support continuous measurement, monitoring, and analysis of the physical world.

    Voxelmaps’ data and platforms help power Large World Models (LWMs) and the next generation of robots, autonomous systems, and AI technologies that need to perceive, navigate, and interact with real-world environments.

  • Eagle Plains Partner Refined Energy Completes First Drill Hole at Dufferin West; Second Hole Underway to Test High-Priority EM Conductor

    CRANBROOK, BC / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSXV:EPL)(OTCQB:EGPLF) (“EPL” or “Eagle Plains”) is pleased to announce that partner Refined Energy Corp (CSE: RUU; OTC: RFMCF; FRA: CWA0) (“Refined”) has completed the first drill hole at Eagle Plains’ 100% owned Dufferin West Property, Saskatchewan.

    Refined holds the exclusive option to acquire up to a 75% interest in the 10,140ha Dufferin Project, which is made up of the North and West Dufferin properties, located adjacent to NexGen Energy’s SW3 Property and approximately 18km from Cameco’s Centennial Deposit where historic drill hole VR-031W3 intersected 8.78% U308 over 33.9m (SMAF 74G12-0061).

    Highlights

    • Maiden drill hole (DW26-001) successfully reached targeted unconformity depth at 332 metres, validating the Company’s geological model;

    • Second drill hole (DW26-002) now underway testing the same high-priority EM conductor and associated structural target;

    • Ground gravity survey completed to further refine drill targets

    • Initial drill program planned for a minimum of three holes totaling approximately 1,200 metres

    Drill hole DW26-001 intersected the unconformity at a depth of 332 metres and was completed in basement rock at 432 metres. Core logging and sampling are underway, with samples to be submitted to an accredited laboratory for detailed analysis and assay results.

    MWH Geo-Surveys recently completed a ground gravity survey across the target area. A total of 817 unique stations in a 50m by 100m grid were surveyed covering approximately 530ha. Preliminary results have been incorporated into the targeting of the second drill hole and will be further utilized for targeting the planned third drill hole.

    The second drill hole, DW26-002, is now underway, located approximately 100 metres south of the first hole. The hole is designed to further evaluate the same electromagnetic (“EM”) conductor defined by previous airborne VTEM data and refined by a recently completed time-domain moving loop EM (TEM) ground geophysical program.

    The second hole is also designed to test the interpreted intersection of the EM conductor with a gravity low, believed to represent a cross-cutting N70 structural fault – a structural setting commonly associated with Athabasca Basin uranium mineralization.

    The current drill program is designed to test multiple high-priority geophysical and structural targets and is planned to consist of a minimum of three drill holes totalling approximately 1,200 metres, with oriented core collection to provide critical geological and structural information. The initial budget is approximately $1.7 million.

    See Dufferin Project Information and Map here

    The Dufferin Project is located on or in close proximity to the known trace of the Virgin River Shear Zone and related splays which are key structures for potential uranium mineralization.

    The Project is prospective for unconformity- and basement-hosted uranium mineralization in proximity to the Virgin River Shear Zone. Faulted basement contacts and brittlely reactivated structures are the primary locations for mineralization in the area covered by the Dufferin Project. The relatively high concentration of secondary uranium-bearing minerals demonstrated by prior exploration work on the Dufferin Project may also indicate uranium mineralization remobilization may play an important role in this region of the Athabasca Basin. Geophysical EM and magnetic anomalies demonstrated by prior exploration work on the Dufferin Project are supported by previous uranium and boron soil and lake sediment anomalies along the inferred fault zones, which are expected to aid in focusing future exploration programs.

    Some of the above results were taken directly from the SMDI descriptions and assessment reports (SMAF) filed with the Saskatchewan government. Management cautions that historical results were collected and reported by past operators and have not been verified nor confirmed by a Qualified Person, but form a basis for ongoing work on the subject properties.

    Qualified Person

    Technical information in this News Release has been reviewed and approved by C.C. Downie, P.Geo., a director and officer of Eagle Plains, hereby identified as the “Qualified Person” under N.I. 43-101.

The resulting issuer is named Summit Royalties Ltd. and trades under the symbol SUM on the TSX Venture Exchange with a market capitalization of over $100M.

    On October 2, 2024, Eagle Plains announced the formation of a separate division within the Company that will give Eagle Plains’ shareholders direct exposure to strategic opportunities in Canadian green energy transition. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Eagle Plains, Osprey Power Inc. (“OP”) will focus on identifying and advancing innovative and diverse clean energy project portfolios in target markets throughout Canada, with an initial focus on Western Canada.

    Eagle Plains’ core business is acquiring grassroots critical- and precious-metal exploration properties. The Company is committed to steadily enhancing shareholder value by advancing our diverse portfolio of projects toward discovery through collaborative partnerships and development of a highly experienced technical team.

    Expenditures from 2010-2025 on Eagle Plains-related projects exceed $41M, the majority of which was funded by third-party partners. This exploration work resulted in approximately 50,000m of diamond-drilling and extensive ground-based exploration work facilitating the advancement of numerous projects at various stages of development.

    Throughout the exploration process, our mission is to help maintain prosperous communities by exploring for and discovering resource opportunities while building lasting relationships through honest and respectful business practices.
