@shanikaduvini
Senior QA Engineer specializing in test automation frameworks and AI-assisted testing for quality at scale.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior QA Engineer with 4+ years of experience in manual and automation testing across e-commerce, travel, and enterprise platforms. I focus on building reliable automation frameworks and strengthening quality processes that help teams ship with confidence.
At Noon, I lead manual release testing for the Noon e-commerce platform as final sign-off before production deployments. I also architected and built a Playwright + TypeScript automation framework from scratch, rolling it out in phased coverage across multiple apps within a monorepo.
I’ve pioneered AI-assisted test generation by integrating Claude (MCP) with Playwright for plain-English test authoring and automatic TypeScript script generation. I’ve also established scalable, squad-owned test maintenance under central QA oversight, and built a reporting setup using ReportPortal and Allure for dashboards, trends, and failure visibility.
Previously, I designed and maintained Selenium WebDriver (Java) automation for the World Airfares platform, validated end-to-end REST API functionality with Postman, and integrated test automation into CI/CD via Jenkins. I’m ISTQB Foundation certified, and I enjoy partnering with development, DevOps, and product teams to drive practical quality through strong defect management in JIRA and disciplined testing practices.
