Senior QA Engineer with expertise in test automation and quality assurance.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Senior QA Engineer with extensive experience in both manual and automated testing. Currently, I lead efforts to transition manual API testing to automated processes at Vitality UK, where I design and implement robust test strategies that enhance quality throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). My role involves creating and maintaining automation test scripts using various frameworks, including Selenium, Appium, and Playwright, ensuring that our testing processes are efficient and effective.
Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, such as designing minimum standards for test cases and introducing a comprehensive Test Analysis and Test Case sign-off process. These initiatives have greatly improved the quality of our testing outputs. My previous experience as a Test Automation Engineer at Standard Bank allowed me to develop automation scripts for multiple web applications and a mobile app, further solidifying my expertise in quality assurance and automation.
