The project involved the development of a car management app where you can keep track of miles driven, gas mileage, eco-driving, and more depending on the car type. Managed to reduce the development time by 50% by creating a suite of 4 apps, each having its specific
purpose: points of interest, eco-driving, consumption, parking, and various other services. Technologies used in the project: Kotlin, Dagger, Koin.
Tools AT&T is actually a collection of projects that work together to provide end-to-end automation testing solutions for AT&T device-related projects. One of the use cases we have is when an OEM wants to launch a new device for AT&T. Without the use of the mentioned tools, both AT&T and OEM would have to manually execute more than
100 test cases with medium to high complexity for the new device qualification. Technologies used in the project: Java, Spring, MySQL.
