What I'm looking for
I translated business requirements into traceable test cases for end-to-end payment workflows, reaching 90% test coverage across application releases.
I defined regression scope, estimated sprint testing effort, and executed smoke and regression testing. I also managed defects in JIRA and validated payment API requests and responses.
I collaborated with QA Leads and development squads on Salesforce Sales Cloud for NBCUniversal and Waters Corporation. I maintained a repository of 50+ regression scripts in Copado Selenium, reducing regression execution time by 30%; I’m now available to return to a full-time QA role.
