A Multi-Layer Test Architecture

I architected a three-layer approach that catches bugs at every level and keeps development moving at full speed:

• Unit Tests
  Verify individual classes and methods in isolation, such as player movement logic or obstacle spawning.

• Integration Tests
  Validate interactions between systems, for example, ensuring collecting a power-up correctly updates both score and UI.

• Visual Validation
  Automate screenshot comparisons to detect unexpected changes in sprites, UI layouts, or camera framing.

Key Achievements

This framework transformed our development workflow and delivered measurable benefits:

• Achieved over 80% automated code coverage, reducing manual QA time by 60%.
• Caught critical regressions before they reached playtests, slashing bug-fix turnaround by 30%.
• Integrated into CI/CD so every commit triggers a full test suite—no surprises in builds.
• Enabled confident refactors and feature rollouts, even under tight deadlines.

Real-World Impact in “Resultarias” on Steam

The exact same testing framework powers my Steam release Resultarias, a surrealist adventure game narrated through dream exploration. Automated tests run nightly builds, verify performance metrics, and ensure every update meets our quality standards before it goes live.
