Empowering Teams in Test Automation

In today’s fast-moving software industry, the need for quick, high-quality releases has never been greater.

Test automation is critical, yet many teams struggle with limited resources and the complexities of building an effective solution. It’s common for automation projects to start strong but falter in maintenance, leading to wasted efforts.

I collaborate with your team through a series of workshops to build a pilot version of your test automation framework, delivering tangible business value and facilitating wider adoption. Once this pilot is operational, your team will take over for further development.
