What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Software Quality Assurance Engineer with over 5 years of experience in both manual and automated testing. Currently, I lead testing efforts at Active 99 in Colombo, where I prepare test plans, conduct various testing types, and collaborate closely with development teams to ensure high-quality software delivery. My expertise includes manual testing for web and mobile applications, automation testing using Playwright, and API testing with Postman.
Previously, I worked at CodeBrix (Pvt) Ltd., where I developed and executed comprehensive test plans and automated tests. My role involved writing detailed bug reports, tracking issues, and preparing test reports for stakeholders. I have a strong foundation in the software testing life cycle and am skilled in using project management tools like JIRA and Trello to streamline testing processes.
In addition to my professional experience, I hold a Bachelor of Information Technology degree from the University of Colombo School of Computing, where I completed a notable project on a Clinic Management System. I am passionate about quality assurance and continuously seek to enhance my skills and contribute to successful project outcomes.
