Summary

I am a seasoned Selenium and API Automation Tester with 2.8 years of experience in automation testing and a strong background in framework design and maintenance using Selenium and ReadyAPI. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated expertise in troubleshooting, real-time problem-solving, and contributing to quality assurance and software testing efforts.
One of my notable projects was the Mobile Payment Gateway, where I took on several responsibilities to enhance the testing processes and outcomes:

1. Implemented a Selenium automation framework using the page object model design pattern, resulting in an impressive 80% reduction in test script development time.
2. Maintained a comprehensive regression suite, which significantly reduced post-release defects by 95%.
3. Developed and implemented robust test frameworks for industrial applications, contributing to a 90% increase in automation test reliability.
4. Executed functional and smoke testing for an API application within an agile environment, showcasing proficiency in handling different HTTP methods.
5. Demonstrated expertise in data-driven testing, hybrid framework, keyword-driven testing, and page object model, which collectively contributed to a 90% increase in testing efficiency.
Moreover, I have experience in configuring and maintaining Dockerized Selenium Grid environments, integrating Jenkins for automated test execution, and providing timely and accurate reports on test progress and quality metrics to project teams.

My professional journey has been recognized with awards such as the Team Excellence Award and an Individual Excellence Spot Award.

In addition to my technical skills, I am a team player with strong oral and communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and a results-driven approach. Outside of work, I enjoy debugging issues, staying updated with industry trends through online resources.
