Quality Assurance Automation Engineer

Founding Quality Assurance Engineer, set up testing processes and infrastructure that freed up 100% of developers' time. Wrote comprehensive QA documentation outlining testing procedures and best practices to comply with industry standards. Created a testing framework using BDD approach with Gherkin syntax, Page Object Model, JavaScript, Cypress, and Cucumber, implementing automated test cases that ensured data accuracy and reduced regression suite running time by 94.85%. Set up reporting to track key metrics with reports generated at the end of each sprint, reducing time by 99.76%.

Created a Cypress-based test automation framework achieving 80% test coverage and reducing regression testing time by 40%. Set up a seeded database on Supabase, eliminating the need for developers to manually create test data, saving an average of two hours per developer per sprint.

Investigated, set priorities, and covered 100% of Express.JS API endpoints with CRUD integration tests using Mocha, Chai, and Supertest with TypeScript. Removed hard code from tests written in Cypress using TypeScript and introduced helpers to generate data dynamically, making tests independent from stage environments and reducing data creation time by 99.83%. Created a cleanup autotest suite to erase data with all dependencies generated by test runs and integrated it into CI/CD with Azure Pipelines, improving efficiency by 99.87%.

Started using MochaAwesome for autotests based on Cypress and used TypeScript to make test reports readable. Implemented mandatory code review and code style enforcement process for autotests, reducing test-related bugs by 40%, increasing test stability, and reducing merge conflicts by 25%. Facilitated sprint completion with a 95% success rate by creating versioned design mockups, streamlining Definition of Done and Acceptance Criteria, reducing rework by 20%, and aligning team efforts.

Led a QA Automation team, built the testing framework with WebdriverIO using JavaScript, and successfully covered 90% of UI test cases in 4 months. Hosted regular demo meetings and feedback sessions with stakeholders before deploying new features. Tested user interfaces and design by inspecting HTML/CSS according to designer’s mock-ups, boosting user experience and decreasing UI bug count by 50%.

Developed and implemented workflow to collect feedback about bugs on production more effectively using questionnaires that saved 55.56% of the time, enhanced interdepartmental communication, and increased quality of bug reports. Mentored new team members to help them integrate and become productive quickly. Suggested writing detailed changelogs in Confluence before publishing new features to improve technical and customer support efficiency. Gained operational experience administering Jira, writing test documentation in Testrail, understanding SDLC with Agile approach, and using SCRUM and Kanban methodologies.

Suggested an automated semantic core generation method for website Search Engine Optimisation.

Studied fundamental theory of information systems, algorithms, web concepts, databases (SQL, MongoDB), and programming basics with C++ and Python.

Learned JavaScript and TypeScript, and built efficient testing frameworks based on WebdriverIO, Cypress, Cucumber, Playwright and Selenium. Practised writing tests using IntelliJ IDEA WebStorm and Microsoft Visual Studio Code, resolving merge conflicts in Git and running them in CircleCI and Docker.
