Have you ever modified or extended a test framework for your needs?

Yes, in my practice there have been cases where the standard test framework did not fully meet the project requirements, and it was necessary to modify or extend it. For example:

• Added custom utilities for generating test data to speed up test preparation.
• Extended base test classes with additional methods for easier code reuse.
• Integrated additional reports or logging to improve error diagnostics.

Such modifications help adapt the framework to specific tasks and increase the efficiency of test automation.
