I’m Pirasanth - but call me PJ.

About me section

I'm a QA automation lead. I like tests that fail for good reasons.


At CoinCover I grew the QA team from 1 to 3 engineers, took E2E coverage from 0% to 90%+ and moved releases from monthly to weekly. Nothing glamorous: good tests, sensible quality gates, and a lot of patience with flaky ones.

…and lately I've been building AI tools that diagnose failing tests, and a dashboard that helps decide whether a release should go out.

I lead QA and test automation. Every project here starts from a testing problem I had to solve. Open one to see how I approached it and what it proves.

AI writes tests quickly. Who checks the AI?

AWS ECR Alternative - How to Build and Push Docker Images to GitHub Container Registry with GitHub Actions

In this blog post, we explore an alternative to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) by leveraging the capabilities of GitHub Container Registry (GHCR). We provide a step-by-step guide on how to build and push Docker images to GHCR using GitHub Actions. By utilizing GHCR, developers can seamlessly integrate Docker image management into their GitHub workflows, simplifying the CI/CD process.
