WebdriverIO is a progressive automation framework for Node.js that streamlines end-to-end testing for web and mobile applications using the WebDriver and Appium protocols.

This open source framework automates modern web and mobile applications through a single, unified API. It supports the W3C WebDriver protocol for desktop browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) and Appium for native mobile testing on iOS and Android. Integration is seamless: the @wdio/cli tool bootstraps projects in minutes, connecting directly to test runners like Mocha or Jasmine. Users benefit from built-in smart selectors and automatic waiting logic that eliminates common synchronization errors. Whether running locally or scaling via cloud providers (Sauce Labs, BrowserStack), WebdriverIO maintains a lean, extensible architecture optimized for high-velocity CI/CD environments.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Phat-deck - using strict schemas as the ultimate Human-LLM contract](https://wellington.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_u819Qxav0Pg)

I built phat-deck, a pure CLI config-as-code slide compiler that transforms raw YAML into pixel-perfect PDF, PNG, and LinkedIn/Reddit carousels without a frontend GUI (yet). I wrote the entire codebase over a single weekend exclusively through the Gemini chat window. For the demo, I will open the terminal, edit the YAML configuration live, and show the exact workflow of how I use strict JSON schemas to define the unbreakable contract between human intent, the LLM's output, and the rendering engine. I'll compile a multi-page, high-res deck directly from the CLI in real-time.

### [Akomi - Automating prior authorization for healthcare providers](https://london.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_Yhlw8_YJBTA)

We are building Akomi, a vertical AI agent that looks to handle Revenue Cycle Management for small to medium sized healthcare clinics in the US. We're starting with automating the "Prior Authorization" flow, which (from our research) would alleviate a significant administrative burden for healthcare providers.
