Interview with Olesia Melnychuk

My Journey as a Test Specialist at Qnit

Test Specialist

Can you tell us about your role at Qnit and the key areas you specialize in?

At Qnit AG, I work as a Test Specialist and Test Automation Engineer. I focus on quality assurance for web applications, using both manual testing and automation with Robot Framework. I create test suites, ensure software quality, and work closely with development team to maintain high standards in our products.

Tell us how you initially got interest in QA and how you got started in this field?

I’ve always been quite detail-oriented and love seeing how things come together. What really drew me to QA was the chance to be part of creating something while making sure it works perfectly. I started out doing manual testing, and as I discovered how much I enjoyed finding ways to improve products, I naturally gravitated toward automation. It’s really satisfying to see a product evolve and know that I played a part in making it better.

How has your expertise grown since joining Qnit, and what are some skills you've developed over time?

My time at Qnit has really helped me grow in many ways. I’ve become quite proficient with Robot Framework and really enjoy creating automated test solutions that make our work more efficient. I’ve also really enjoyed working with our QA colleagues – there’s always something new to learn from each other, and it’s great to be part of such a collaborative team.

What has been your highlight so far in your time with us?

Beyond the professional aspects, I really appreciate the team events at Qnit. Whether it’s skiing together, challenging ourselves at the high ropes course, or having cozy barbecue evenings with colleagues – these moments have created great memories and strengthened our team bonds.

What makes Qnit truly special is the people. I really value how my colleagues are always ready to listen, support, and help each other. This kind of genuine collaboration and mutual support creates a unique work environment where everyone can grow and succeed together.
