About Me
I’m a passionate and detail-oriented Aspiring Software Test Engineer with a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering and hands-on experience in Manual Testing, API Testing, SQL, and Agile methodologies. I completed a 6-month QA internship where I gained practical experience in creating and executing test cases, identifying and reporting defects, and tracking issues using Jira.
I’m currently strengthening my automation testing skills using Selenium WebDriver with Java and TestNG, while also working with Postman for API testing and SQL for database validation. I have knowledge of Functional, Regression, Integration, and System Testing, along with test design techniques such as Equivalence Partitioning and Boundary Value Analysis.
I enjoy finding defects, understanding how applications work, and ensuring software delivers a reliable and high-quality user experience. I’m continuously learning new tools and technologies and looking for an opportunity to begin my career as a Software Test Engineer / QA Engineer.

Selected Work
SauceDemo E-Commerce Website – Automation Testing
Developed an automated testing framework for the SauceDemo e-commerce application using Selenium WebDriver with Java, TestNG, and Maven. Automated key user flows including login, product selection, adding products to the cart, checkout, and order completion. Implemented the Page Object Model (POM) to create reusable and maintainable test scripts. Used TestNG annotations, groups, priorities, dependencies, and assertions to organize and execute test scenarios efficiently. The project demonstrates practical knowledge of UI automation, functional testing, test framework design, and defect identification.
Academy / Courses Web Application
Developed a full-stack online academy platform that allows users to explore and access courses through a responsive web interface. Built the frontend using React.js and Tailwind CSS, with NestJS for backend API development and MongoDB for data management. Implemented API integration, course listing, reusable components, and application state management using React Context. The project demonstrates full-stack development, REST API integration, database connectivity, and responsive UI design.
