Selenide-based UI Automation Framework

https://intland.com/
In the beginning, I maintained and migrated the old Selenium-based tests into Selenide. I also implemented the manual test cases made by the manual testing team and generated a detailed report from the test runs in Jenkins. To do this, I had to figure out the best practices for generating test data, find out the best-fitting modeling concepts, and learn about Jenkins.
