As an Automation Test Engineer with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in both manual and automated testing for Web and Mobile applications, working extensively in Agile methodologies. I have actively participated in grooming, planning, and scrum calls, ensuring smooth and effective collaboration within cross-functional teams. In my role as QA Lead, I have led functional and automation testing efforts using Selenium with various frameworks, including TestNG and Cucumber, and have experience with Maven, Jenkins, Azure CI/CD, and GitHub for continuous integration and deployment. I possess hands-on experience in middleware services and API testing, particularly with RestAssured for API automation. I have also tested Salesforce (SFDC) applications using both manual and automated approaches. Throughout my career, I’ve worked extensively across the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC), including requirement gathering, test planning, scheduling, execution, defect tracking, and generating test metrics and reports. I am proficient in test script maintenance, in-sprint automation, and regression automation, ensuring the seamless execution of testing processes. With expertise in Mobile and web application testing, I am experienced in performing system, functional, integration, and end-to-end testing. I am responsible for delivering project milestones, estimating efforts, and collaborating with clients to ensure their needs are met. I have a thorough understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), specifically in SAFe Agile, and have actively contributed across various phases such as requirements analysis, PI planning, story grooming, stand-up meetings, and retrospective sessions.
