Pratik Naidu
@pratiknaidu
Dedicated QA Engineer with expertise in web application testing.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Software Testing Engineer specializing in both Manual and Automation Testing for complex, fast-moving web applications. With hands-on experience in Selenium WebDriver, Java, Gradle, and POM, I focus on building clean, scalable automation frameworks and ensuring every release meets the highest standards of quality.
I love solving problems that slow teams down—unclear requirements, flaky test scripts, hidden UI issues, or missing test coverage—and turning them into structured, testable, and reliable workflows. My approach blends deep technical testing skills with strong communication, making it easy for cross-functional teams to move faster with fewer bugs.
What I’m great at:
• Designing functional, regression, sanity, and compatibility tests that uncover real user-impacting issues
• Developing maintainable automation scripts and enhancing frameworks for long-term scalability
• Breaking down user stories and acceptance criteria into detailed, testable scenarios
• Managing the full defect lifecycle and collaborating closely with Dev, QA, and PM teams
• Delivering clear documentation—Test Plans, Test Cases, Sprint Reports, and Defect Reports
I thrive in Agile/Scrum environments and enjoy working with distributed or remote teams where communication, ownership, and trust matter most. Continuous learning drives me—I’m always exploring ways to improve test efficiency, strengthen automation, and contribute to smoother, higher-quality releases.
If you’re looking for someone who cares about quality and I’d love to connect.
