Welcome to TAROT 2026

Testing and verification of AI-enabled systems

TAROT (Training And Research On Testing) is a network created to foster the mobility of students, faculty members, and research scientists working in the field of testing of software and communication systems.

Now in its 21st edition, the TAROT Summer School brings together lecturers, researchers, students, and industry practitioners from across Europe for one week of presentations, discussions, and networking.

The 2026 edition focuses on Testing, Validation, and Security of AI-enabled Systems, including DNN-, VLM-, and LLM-based systems, autonomous systems, runtime verification, robustness, and AI safety.
