Nikit Kumar
@nikitkumar1
I test mobile, web, and API products, delivering reliable releases across payments, analytics, and insurance platforms.
What I'm looking for
I've tested payment flows at Invideo and PhonePe, covering subscription gateways, UPI transactions, rewards, REST APIs, and end-to-end mobile experiences.
At Qapitol QA, I currently perform functional testing for the Equitrust insurance web application, collaborate with developers and product owners, and manage defects through JIRA. Previously, I designed test cases from business requirements and conducted API, exploratory, performance, usability, compatibility, cross-browser, and load testing.
At Innova Solutions, I tested Android and iOS applications for a consumer data analytics platform, verified logs through AWS CloudWatch, and maintained documentation for knowledge sharing across teams.
Across nine-plus years, I've created test plans, executed manual and automated test scripts, used Claude AI to accelerate test design and documentation, and helped teams deliver high-quality releases on time.
