Problem

Teams needed a way to define large-scale automated tests using a familiar interface without hand-writing Robot Framework code.

Approach

I designed a system that converts structured Excel files into executable Robot Framework test suites, handling validation, transformation, and execution.

Trade-offs

  • Excel offers approachability but requires strict validation
  • Kept the system static-first for reliability
  • Avoided over-abstraction to keep debugging simple

Reflection

This project taught me the value of owning systems end-to-end and making deliberate trade-offs instead of chasing theoretical purity.
