Vehicle trade-in valuation dashboard

Trade-in Value Platform

Mercedes-Benz · 2023 – 2024

Multi-locale Playwright suite across German, English, Saudi Arabic and Chinese markets.

PlaywrightMulti-locale

Challenge / Initial situation

Trade-in valuation ran in four languages across separate market sites, and every release needed slow, error-prone manual regression that could not keep up with configuration changes.

Approach / Measures

  • Designed a scalable Playwright framework in TypeScript supporting all locales
  • Filter-driven dynamic testing for vehicle configurations
  • Wired the suite into GitHub Actions with parallel execution and Allure reporting

Results

  • Manual testing time reduced significantly across all four markets
  • Consistent, repeatable coverage of every locale on each release
  • Full reporting visibility for stakeholders after every pipeline run
CT imaging review interface

CT Imaging Validation

GE Healthcare — John F. Welch Technology Centre · Jul 2017 – May 2018

High-precision QA for mission-critical CT digital and scan systems.

HealthTechRegression

Challenge / Initial situation

Mission-critical medical imaging systems relied on lengthy manual verification while still having to satisfy strict healthcare regulatory requirements.

Approach / Measures

  • Architected an enterprise automation framework with RobotFramework, Selenium and Python
  • Embedded regulatory-compliant QA processes into the delivery workflow
  • Automated regression execution through Jenkins pipelines

Results

  • 60% reduction in testing cycles
  • 75% fewer defects escaping to production
  • Audit-ready, repeatable evidence for every release
AI agent network generating test cases

AI Test Agents Suite

Dinexora — Intelix.ai, Jiraa2a, QAinteliagent · 2024 – Present

Local-LLM tooling that turns requirements and Jira tickets into ready test cases.

AIBDD

Challenge / Initial situation

Test authoring lagged behind delivery velocity, with requirements scattered across Jira tickets and PDF specifications that nobody had time to translate into cases.

Approach / Measures

  • Built Jira integration that generates XRay-format cases with a local, privacy-safe LLM
  • Stored and retrieved generated cases through a Qdrant vector database
  • Added Playwright script generation and gap analysis on top of the generated suites

Results

  • 70% faster test creation with improved coverage
  • Traceability from requirement to test case to automated script
  • Test design work kept entirely offline and privacy-safe

Project portfolio

Every engagement in STAR format

Video Service & Camera Platform

Smartfrog GmbH · Berlin

Jul 2019 – Oct 2020

End-to-end QA for web, mobile and IoT camera devices.

RobotFrameworkAppiumDockerGoCD

Challenge / Initial situation

Quality had to be proven across web, mobile apps and physical camera hardware, with manual device checks that could not scale to the release cadence.

Approach / Measures

  • Built end-to-end IoT device automation covering real camera flows
  • Extended coverage across web and mobile platforms with Appium
  • Containerised execution and integrated it with GoCD pipelines

Results

  • 70% increase in testing efficiency
  • Cross-platform test coverage in a single suite

Y.Cube Energy Management Platform

Aggreko GmbH · Berlin

Jul 2018 – Feb 2019

Automation framework and DevOps integration for an energy management product.

OpenShiftJenkinsPythonRobotFramework

Challenge / Initial situation

Regression for a complex energy platform was manual, and multiple environments made it hard to reproduce and verify issues reliably.

Approach / Measures

  • Designed the automation framework architecture and rolled it out with the team
  • Integrated QA automation with DevOps practice and Jenkins CI/CD
  • Enabled multi-environment testing on OpenShift (OKD)

Results

  • 60% less manual regression effort
  • Faster, more predictable release cycles

Logistics & Retail Systems Automation

Walmart

2017 – 2019

Transportation, warehouse, freight and route management automation.

QTP/UFTJenkinsQuality Center

Challenge / Initial situation

Four large logistics systems were validated by hand, making peak-season releases risky and slow to sign off.

Approach / Measures

  • Built automation frameworks with QTP/UFT integrated into Jenkins
  • Implemented continuous testing pipelines for the logistics systems
  • Ran proofs of concept and client demonstrations to validate the approach

Results

  • Continuous regression across four core systems
  • Standardised test strategy and documentation

IflightNeo & Airline Solutions

IBS Software · Trivandrum

Apr 2014 – Jan 2016

QA strategy for reservation, operations and customer service platforms.

SeleniumQTP/UFTRobotFramework

Challenge / Initial situation

Several mission-critical airline products each had their own testing practices, with no shared standard or reusable automation.

Approach / Measures

  • Established a Testing Center of Excellence to standardise practice
  • Drove enterprise-wide automation adoption across the product lines
  • Automated regression for reservation and operations systems

Results

  • 50% reduction in regression testing time
  • Multiple airline systems automated on one standard

Quality Assurance Transformation

Healthcare Technology Provider

2023 – 2024

Modernised QA process and tooling for a healthcare platform.

TypeScriptPlaywrightCucumberAzure DevOps

Challenge / Initial situation

Legacy tooling and undocumented test practice let too many defects reach production on a regulated platform.

Approach / Measures

  • Introduced a BDD framework with Cucumber and Playwright
  • Established an automated security testing pipeline
  • Aligned the team on shared living documentation

Results

  • 75% lower bug escape rate
  • Shared, readable specifications across QA and product

Mobile App Testing Framework

E-commerce Platform

2023

Cross-platform mobile test solution for iOS and Android.

AppiumJavaScriptAWS Device Farm

Challenge / Initial situation

Mobile releases depended on manual checks on a small device set, so visual and device-specific defects slipped through.

Approach / Measures

  • Created a cross-platform Appium suite for iOS and Android
  • Added visual regression testing to catch UI drift
  • Scaled execution on AWS Device Farm with Docker

Results

  • 90% test automation coverage
  • Device-specific regressions caught before release
