SUMMARY:

• Automated our own internal testing tool (iOS and Android Gateway) by also using our own internal testing tool called eggPlant functional.
• Created and executed automated and manual functional tests for the mobile platform (iOS and Android) using internal testing tools iOS Gateway, Android Gateway, eggPlant functional, eggPlant manager and Bash scripts.
• Wrote comprehensive automated smoke tests for iOS and Android devices using eggPlant functional and Bash scripts.
• Timely performed planning and execution during software release by using Testrail planning scheme and automated scripts according to the release schedule.
• Wrote bash scripts with adb (android debug bridge) commands in them to get Android System application status so later I can use the result to my benefit to help expedite the release process.
• Developed a Mac OS app using Cocoa to figure out which Xcode version is compatible with iOS version. My boss thought it was a great idea and he agreed to embed this app in one of our main product called iOS Gateway to help iOS testing.
• Created nightly automated regression tests by using our internal testing tool called eggPlant Manager. The test would kick - in every morning at 4 am and by the time I get to the office, I would know what exactly passed or what failed. Saved me and the company a lot of time
• Did hybrid testing by using Appium for Object-based testing and combined it with image-based testing (by using eggPlant functional) to make the nightly regression a little less time-consuming without having to sacrifice the quality of the test. Performed this on Mac and Windows for testing Android.
• Developed and performed compatibility test. Wrote test plans, test cases, and test configurations as far as the devices go. Especially iOS had a lot of compatibility issues with Xcode versions and any Android above Android OS 6+ had permission issues, so it was very important to make sure that it was compatible before we released the software.
• Performed automated smoke testing right after a new build was kicked in, in Jenkins. Doing testing this way caught more bugs quicker than it would have otherwise.
• Executed automated functional tests using our internal testing tools: eggPlant functional, iOS Gateway, Android Gateway, and eggPlant Manager.
• Kept an excel sheet about what date our software was released so later if there’s a non-compatibility issue that arises we can get to it quickly by referencing dates and the exact Jenkins build number without wasting any time.
• Participated in the company’s internal quarterly hackathons and annual testing conferences such as Techwell East and West.
• Familiar with Agile (SCRUM) as well as with Waterfall methodology.
• Collaborated with customers via technical account managers whenever it was necessary.
• Attended daily stand-ups scrum status meetings, sprint plannings, backlog grooming, and release retrospectives.
