Aleksandr Kotlyar

Senior Software Engineer in Test / QA Automation Lead

I build test infrastructure, CI/CD quality gates, and reporting systems that make engineering feedback faster, more reliable, and easier to act on.

My work focuses on Python test automation, GitLab CI, Docker, Allure reporting, test observability, and reducing flaky or low-signal checks. I also mentor QA engineers and help teams establish practical automation standards.

Featured projects

gitlab-allure-history

A GitLab CI solution for preserving Allure history across pipeline runs and publishing trend reports through GitLab Pages.

python-gitlabci-selenium

A reusable Selenium and pytest project template for consistent multi-browser test execution locally and in GitLab CI with Docker.

python-test-automation-cookbook

Practical recipes for API and UI testing, pytest architecture, CI/CD pipelines, Dockerized execution, Allure reporting, quality gates, and security checks.

Open source

Alongside my own projects, I contribute to GitLab and other open-source projects through implementation, regression investigation, testing, and maintenance.

Outside test automation, I build open-source World of Warcraft addons in Lua under Ancestral Forge.
