About

A builder who tests. A tester who understands the build.

I am Sokratis Papasokratous, a Manual QA Engineer and hands-on web creator based in Cyprus. My work sits between product quality, practical development and long-term operation.

Background

I have built and run eCommerce businesses, public websites, Chrome extensions and internal systems. So I know both the moment a feature is released and the months of updates, customer questions and unexpected behaviour that follow.

In QA, I focus on user flows, functional accuracy, regressions, compatibility and clear defect reports. In development, the same mindset leads to simpler decisions, safer releases and websites that stay manageable.
