Palak Saxena

I’m a detail-oriented Software Tester with experience in both automated and manual testing, focused on end-to-end quality assurance and release readiness. In my current role as a QA Specialist, I drive manual validation, support Shift Left testing through requirement and design discussions, and ensure consistent cross-platform functionality. I also validate third-party integrations (including SCORM, Zapier, QuickBooks, HubSpot, and Zenoti) and verify AI-powered features against customer-specific business requirements.

I’ve also built and improved automation to increase regression efficiency—developing complex XPath locators for better coverage and creating test automation frameworks using Selenium with Python. Earlier, I maintained Postman collections for API testing and automated 70% of critical test cases, while collaborating cross-functionally to update test cases and automation scripts as requirements evolved. I bring BDD experience with Gherkin syntax, and I’m eager to take on challenging projects that help me grow and enhance my testing skills.
