About
Hi, I’m Rufat Malikov — a QA automation engineer with 9+ years building and stabilizing end-to-end test automation across web, mobile, REST APIs, and AWS-native data pipelines.
A lot of my work has been the high-stakes, unglamorous side of quality: flaky-test remediation, release-gate go/no-go calls, and source-to-target data validation for ETL pipelines. I’ve worked across Selenium, Playwright, Appium, and XCUITest — in Java, Python, and C# — with deep AWS and SQL experience.
These days I’m especially interested in AI-assisted testing: using Claude, Claude Code, and MCP-based agentic tooling to speed up test authoring, generate realistic test data, and spot defect patterns. That’s also what I explore on my YouTube channel, AI with Rufat.
This site is where I share what I learn and build — a free, interactive Playwright trainer (BrauzerLab), notes on testing and AI, and side projects like an interview trainer. Everything here is free.
I’m currently open to QA automation / SDET roles — remote, hybrid, or on-site.
