معرفی
Fabian Leinen serves as a Researcher at the Department of Software and Systems Engineering, Technical University of Munich, working under Prof. Alexander Pretschner's chair. His research focuses on critical challenges in modern software development pipelines, particularly addressing flaky tests in continuous integration environments.
His research interests center on software testing reliability, with specialization in flaky test identification, resource-constrained test execution, and automotive software validation. Leinen investigates how system resource limitations impact test determinism and develops methodologies to reduce flakiness-related costs in industrial CI/CD workflows. His work bridges theoretical testing frameworks with practical industrial applications, particularly in safety-critical domains.
Notable recognition includes the Rohde & Schwarz Best Bachelor Award for thesis work on dynamic program analysis for flaky test detection. His research outputs demonstrate strong industry relevance through multiple industrial case studies and automotive software applications.
Leinen actively supervises academic theses, having guided multiple Master's and Bachelor's projects on flaky test repair, detection optimization, and root cause analysis. His teaching portfolio includes regular instruction in Software Quality Seminars and Advanced Topics of Software Engineering across multiple semesters. Current research directions focus on severity-aware test prioritization and resource-efficient flakiness mitigation strategies.
