During a two-month period, Kastanek contributed to the petr-kus/2024_autumn_saucedemo_tstcourse repository by building a UI test automation framework for saucedemo.com. He established foundational test scaffolding and implemented automated end-to-end tests using Python, Selenium WebDriver, and Robot Framework, focusing on login, cart, navigation, and logout flows. His approach emphasized maintainability through the Page Object Model, code cleanup, and standardized naming, which improved test reliability and onboarding efficiency. By integrating dependency management and CI-ready scripts, Kastanek enabled repeatable, scalable test execution. His work provided clear traceability, enhanced test coverage, and stabilized the environment for ongoing web automation development.

December 2024: Delivered the SauceDemo UI Test Automation Framework with Page Object Model (POM), Selenium WebDriver, and Robot Framework integration for end-to-end validation. Established initial browser test structure, POM-based navigation/login/menu scaffolding, test/test-file scaffolding, cleanup routines, and reporting hooks to enable CI-ready test execution. Performed repository hygiene by removing stale artifacts (e.g., __pycache__ and stray report/test.txt) to improve CI reliability. No critical defects fixed this month; focus was on framework foundation, testability, and environment stabilization. Business value: faster, repeatable UI regression, scalable test coverage, and higher quality UI validation across browsers.
