Divyalakshmi Guru

I’m a results-driven QA Automation Engineer with 6+ years of IT experience, including 4+ years in automation testing. I’ve delivered measurable outcomes like 92% defect detection across FinTech, EdTech, SaaS, and Logistics domains.

I design automation that teams can govern: I built a Cucumber BDD framework using Rule keyword grouping (Subscription Rules and Billing Rules) so product owners can audit scenario coverage per acceptance criterion during sprint reviews. I also implement structured quality gates—via TestNG ISuiteListener generating HTML reports published to Jenkins—to surface pass rate, critical failures, and automation coverage per module.

On the API side, I centralize assertions using REST Assured ResponseSpecBuilder (including status code, Content-Type, and response-time-under-2000ms) applied through filterWith() across 70+ methods to eliminate duplicated checks. For browser automation, I’ve built Playwright TypeScript frameworks with globalSetup seeding tenant data and storageState.json sharing to remove per-test authentication overhead, plus request interception (page.route()) to inject tier headers for SaaS pricing validations.

To speed up delivery without sacrificing confidence, I’ve used TestNG listeners for structured JSON logging to CI dashboards and Playwright parallelism to cut end-to-end regressions dramatically (e.g., from 3 hours to ~20–22 minutes, depending on the program). I also validate system truth with DB checks (JDBC/MySQL and PostgreSQL) field-by-field against API payloads, enabling QA teams to reduce manual regression by 70% and focus on exploratory testing, security validation, and compliance scenario coverage.
