About

I am a graduate student in computer science at Harvard under Prof. Hanspeter Pfister. My research interests are in computer graphics, particularly data-driven techniques, computational photography, and graphics hardware. I completed my M.C.S. at the University of Virginia under David Luebke and received my B.S. in computer science from the University of North Carolina.

    Abbot: A Java GUI Test Framework. Abbot is a framework for programmatically driving Java UI components; coupled with Costello, which provides scripting capabilities to Abbot, the framework is well-suited for building unit and functional tests for GUI-based Java applications. As an intern at IBM, I extended Abbot to support SWT and worked on integrating Abbot into the Eclipse platform.
