Expert QA Playwright — Specialist in flaky tests

QA Engineer specializing in E2E automation with Playwright, I work to make your tests reliable, maintainable, and scalable.

My specialty: eliminating flaky tests (unstable, non-deterministic) that slow down your teams and undermine confidence in your CI/CD pipelines.

Specifically, I:

•Diagnose the root causes of flaky tests (timing, unstable data, fragile selectors, external dependencies)

•Refactor your Playwright suites to ensure stability and reproducibility

•Implement a scalable and factored test architecture (fixtures, shared login, test isolation)

•Optimize execution times (reduction of unnecessary retries, proper parallelization)

•Improve assertion quality to avoid false positives / false negatives

•Integrate your tests into your pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions…) with clear reporting

Goal:

Transition from a slow and unstable test suite to a reliable product decision tool.

Thanks to my web and mobile development experience, I quickly identify why your tests are breaking on the front end and make them reliably sustainable.

Result: more reliable tests, robust selectors, and fewer flaky tests related to the front end.
