Work Experience

QA Automation Engineer

PowerSchool India Pvt Ltd

Present - Present

Design, develop and maintain Java + Selenium WebDriver + TestNG automation scripts using POM, expanding E2E and regression coverage across core product workflows; automated 120+ test cases, raising automation coverage from 70% to 80%. Build and run automated regression suites for frequent release cycles, catching regressions from new feature releases early and cutting regression time from 3hr to 2hr. Develop and execute REST API automation with Rest Assured and Postman, validating request/response data, HTTP status codes, business rules. Run manual and exploratory testing on new features and business-rule/configuration changes before automating, validating functional correctness first. Perform functional, integration, system and regression testing on data-driven application screens, deriving test scenarios from requirements and design documents. Integrate suites with Jenkins and Git for continuous testing; debug failures and flaky tests, and contribute improvements to the existing automation framework. Log and track defects in JIRA with steps to reproduce and expected vs. actual results; maintain test plans and test documentation for full coverage traceability. Work with developers and product managers in Agile/Scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives) to clarify requirements and define test strategy. Received the PowerChampion Award twice in a single year for problem-solving, high-quality deliverables and contribution to software quality.
