PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Automated Tester (SDET)

Responsibilities:

• I wrote and tested hundreds of manual
• Tests and wrote bugs for many errors
• Next big project was to convert records of acquisition to Confidential system. In this I wrote hundreds of manual UI tests. There was a tight deadline but management decided to change from using MS-TFS system to using the HP-ALM system. Since the project was not given extra time I wrote a tool that automatically converted TFS tests to ALM tests.
• The manual tests were time consuming, so on my own I started writing automated UI tests in Selenium.
• Having these tests saved an immense amount of time.
• I am in charge of maintenance of the tests.
• I was also called upon to do code reviews
• Do manual testing when needed
• Write up bugs, participate in triage
• Write tools when needed
• Create automated test architecture (Page pattern)
• Write automated UI tests to replace manual regression
• Maintain automated tests
• Participate in planning meetings
• Participate in Agile meetings
