• Supported quality team members during corrective action updates.
• Built automation framework using Java, Selenium WebDriver, Karate API, TestNG, Maven, Cucumber.
• Tested new features before deploying to the production or QA region in every sprint of the running projects in agile. Attended in the scrum call in the morning and discuss about the testing issue within the team.
• Facilitated training for new team members to bring them up to speed on the progress of the project, as well as to guide them on the importance of code reusability & coding standards.
• Supported solutions for innovative problem-solving and customer service by updated existing test automation framework, redesigned testing flow, added new utilities and jars, modified test scripts, and added test assertion using TestNG.
• Executed manual tests, developed reusable framework methods, executed entire regression test suites, furnish test reports, produce code fixed on test failures and update JIRA tickets. Contributed to scrum and planning meetings.
• Redesigned and fixed existing framework cleaned up and speed up test execution. Developed automation code for new features/released for each sprint in agile environment.
• Created multiple test data and utilized those data to test new features manually to check functionality in various test scenarios. Updated web element locators (page objects) when test fails on new releases are deployed and executed regression on scheduled basis.
• Worked with DevOps Team to setup pipeline for Continuous Integration and Deployment. Reduced the manually efforts by applying the DevOps concepts and using CI/CD tool to set up Jenkins Jobs on daily Smoke Suite for lower regions and weekly Regression Suite Execution for higher regions.
• Automated and validated all UI components, Pop-up's, Browser navigations, Mouse Movements and web tables using Selenium WebDriver and TestNG assertions.
