I defended my master’s dissertation in Computer Science at CIn-UFPE.

The dissertation was titled “Using Noise to Detect Test Flakiness”. The idea behind it is simple: by adding controlled noise to the machine running the tests — competing for CPU, memory, and I/O — we change the timing of concurrent executions and surface flaky tests that a plain rerun would rarely expose. That work later became the Shaker tool.

My thanks to my supervisor and co-supervisor, and to the committee for the feedback.
