Contributed to implementation of the new TM-Workflow application within the Capital Market Portal (inSights), improving end-to-end visibility of the deposit onboarding customer process, supporting complex multi-entity structures, and reducing operational delays through enhanced dashboards, notifications, and automated PDF reporting. Formulated detailed project plans and work breakdown structures that clarified resource distribution and task scheduling, enabling smoother team collaboration and project execution. Oversaw PI commitments, tracked progress, and proactively reported impediments, risks, and dependencies. Designed and implemented a scalable Selenium automation framework in Java, integrating Hybrid, Data-Driven, and BDD strategies with TestNG and the Page Object Model (POM) to validate complex workflows, expand regression coverage, and reduce manual testing effort by over 30 hours weekly. Designed a REST API automation framework using REST Assured for backend service validation. Built end-to-end UI automation with Playwright and JavaScript, leveraging parallel execution, auto-waits, and built-in cross-browser support to accelerate testing and ensure seamless CI/CD integration. Authored BDD feature files using Gherkin for acceptance criteria defined at the story level. Guided requirement prioritization, story-point estimation, and sprint commitments based on team velocity and capacity. Applied a broad testing discipline spanning GUI, integration, regression, UAT, performance, smoke, database, and API testing. Coordinated offshore/onshore QA teams, managed customer priorities, and delivered high-quality releases supported by detailed Test End Reports.
