Olek Osikowicz

Computer Science PhD Student
Hi there! I am a 2nd year PhD student at the University of Sheffield, supervised by Dr Donghwan Shin and Prof Phil McMinn.
I joined the Testing Lab in the School of Computer Science in October 2023. My research focuses on testing self-driving systems in simulated environments. As part of this work, I investigated flaky tests in Autonomous Driving Systems, with my first accepted paper on the topic available here. Alongside my research, I work as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for the COM3523 Software Re-engineering module, supporting both undergraduate and master’s students.
For more details, you can find my full CV here.
