About Me
I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Ottawa, Canada. I am currently working on the problem of Flaky Tests in Regression Testing and Continuous Integration. I aim to develop black-box and generalized solutions to detect and fix these Flaky Tests using language models which can be then incorporated in industrial practices. My areas of interest includes: Code Generation, Automated Software Testing, Applied Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing.
