About

💡 Behind every great software is a tester who never gave up. I’m Yash Agrawal, an Associate Software Engineer and Quality Assurance professional with over 4+ years of hands-on experience in both manual and automation testing, working across enterprise-level products in diverse domains. At Clarivate, I’ve contributed to the quality of globally used platforms by owning end-to-end testing, from requirement analysis to test planning, execution, and reporting. My daily tools of impact include Selenium, Playwright (TypeScript), Java, Postman, REST Assured, and more — all used to execute functional, integration, and regression testing across web and API layers. Previously at SOM Auto Tech, I gained strong development insight by building robust systems in Java, which sharpened my tester mindset. These projects deepened my understanding of both development and QA lifecycles, making me a more effective and collaborative tester. 🏆 Highlights: Boosted product release cycles by 40% through automation. Improved product quality, resulting in a 20% increase in revenue. Recognized for resolving critical issues with swift turnaround times. Known for cross-functional collaboration and leadership in QA processes. I thrive in Agile environments, love debugging tricky issues, and constantly seek to learn newer tools and techniques to stay sharp. When I'm not testing, you might find me participating in athletics — I’m a national-level gold medalist in long jump! 📬 Let’s connect! Whether it’s for QA collaboration, sharing ideas, or exploring new opportunities — I’m always open to growing my network and taking on the next big challenge.
