Python Back-End Automation

🚀 Overview

Python Back-End Automation is a Python-based backend automation project focused on building reusable, structured automation logic for real-world backend workflows.
The goal of this repository is to demonstrate backend engineering fundamentals such as modular design, automation scripting, error handling, and extensibility.

This project is intentionally designed as a portfolio-ready backend automation service, suitable for production-style growth.

🧠 What This Project Demonstrates

• Backend automation patterns in Python
• Clean entry-point driven execution (main.py)
• Modular, reusable backend logic
• Scalable project structure
• Real-world engineering practices (logging, testing, CI)

---

🛠 Tech Stack

• Python 3.8+
• Standard library + extensible third-party integrations
• Pytest (testing – planned)
• GitHub Actions (CI – planned)
