• Verify safeguards against prompt injection and sensitive information disclosure across users and tenants.
• Assess behavior during AI service outages, timeouts, incomplete responses, and dependency failures.
• Build and maintain automated UI, API, integration, and data validation tests within CI/CD pipelines.
