Forge
AI Test-Authoring & Automation Agent
An intelligent AI automation agent that investigates product-area workstreams, creates detailed automation tickets, and autonomously generates, validates, and runs regression test suites across repositories using isolated git worktrees.
The Core Challenge
Engineering Solution & Implementation
Built an autonomous test-authoring engine with semantic indexing of the existing automation codebase. Forge scans ticket requirements, branches isolated git worktrees to author Pytest/automation scripts, executes local verification, and enforces strict delivery gates (static analysis, CI test runs, integration checks).

Verified Outcomes & Deliverables
Accelerated test-authoring velocity by generating verified, idiomatically correct test suites from Jira specifications.
Isolated multi-ticket development using parallel git worktrees, preventing branch collision.
Semantic indexing ensures newly written tests reuse existing test fixtures, helper libraries, and page objects.
