Profile

Passionate and detail-oriented QA Engineer with 2+ years of experience in Manual, Automation, API, and Database Testing across Web and Mobile applications. Skilled in applying industry-standard QA methodologies, including test planning, test case design, automation frameworks, CI/CD integration, and security testing. Strong understanding of QA processes, testing principles, and best practices. Hands-on experience validating complex systems through both manual and automated approaches to ensure high-quality, reliable, and scalable software delivery.

  • Manual Testing: Skilled in the full testing lifecycle β€” from requirement analysis and test design to execution, defect management, and reporting. Familiar with test management tools like JIRA and TestRail, ensuring clear communication, comprehensive coverage, and quality delivery.
  • Automation Testing: Built and maintained a robust Hybrid Test Automation Framework using Java, Selenium WebDriver, TestNG, Maven, POM, and Selenium Grid for parallel and cross-browser testing. Integrated detailed reporting with ExtentReports and Log4j2, and implemented CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, improving test efficiency, accuracy, and repeatability.
  • API & Database Testing: Experienced in validating RESTful APIs using Postman and automating API workflows with Rest Assured. Performed schema validation, functional and performance testing, backend data verification with SQL queries, and applied security testing practices to ensure data integrity, reliability, and secure API and database operations.
  • Performance Testing: Conducted load, stress, and scalability testing using JMeter, analyzing system stability, response times, and bottlenecks to ensure efficient, reliable, and scalable software performance.
  • Modern Tools & Practices: Familiar with BDD frameworks (Cucumber), modern automation tools like Playwright and Cypress, Git/GitHub for version control, and Docker for containerized testing environments.
  • Collaboration & Delivery: Actively involved throughout the full software development lifecycle β€” from requirement analysis and sprint planning to QA strategy, execution, release, and documentation. Collaborated with developers, product managers, and stakeholders to ensure timely, accurate, and well-maintained software delivery.
