Overview

I am a researcher at the Chair of Software Engineering at ETH Zurich. I succesfully defended my Ph.D. thesis October 2008, which was supervised by Prof. Dr. Bertrand Meyer. I did my master thesis at the TU Graz.

Areas of Research

My primary area of research is software testing. We have developed a series of tools that aid and automate testing.
