Work Experience

Performance Testing

GitHub

Oct 2023 - Present

Designed performance test scenarios in JMeter to analyze application response times and stability under concurrent user loads. Used CSV Data Set Config for parameterization, JSON extractors for correlation, and pre/post processors for dynamic request handling. Analyzed throughput, average response time, and error rate; documented findings in a summary report.

API Test Automation

GitHub

Present - Present

Built a pytest-based test suite covering 8+ REST API endpoints across GET, POST, PUT, DELETE. Implemented authentication, CRUD, and negative test scenarios; validated status codes, response schemas, and headers. Used pytest fixtures and parametrize for data-driven regression testing; generated HTML and Allure reports.

Manual Testing

GitHub

Present - Present

Wrote 50+ manual test cases covering login, search, add-to-cart, checkout, and UI validation across web and mobile views (functional, regression, smoke, and integration scenarios). Mapped test cases to requirements using a Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM). Logged, tracked, and re-tested defects after fixes; deliverables included a test case sheet (Excel), detailed defect reports, and a defect log.
