Software Developer/Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Developed and managed Automated Tests within an Automation Framework Selenium with build tool Maven and using Java.
• Developed Automation Framework using Selenium WebDriver, Cucumber, IntelliJ and Java and extended TestNG Framework by adding some helper classes and methods.
• Implemented Object Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts of Java language and TestNG Framework for developing the Scripts.
• Utilized TestNG new feature (TestNG Reporting and Screenshot), Soft Assertion, to capture multiple failures of the Test Case instead of stopping at the first failure.
• Automated Web services and API’s using REST Assured library in IntelliJ.
• Checked the data flow through the Front-End to Back-End and used SQL Queries to extract the data from the Database.
• Performed synchronization using conditional synchronization i.e., Implicit, Explicit waits to ensure that Test Case components in Selenium work parallel with each other.
• Implemented Data-driven Framework to extract the data from excel sheets using Apache POI and to drive the data into the Test Cases and validating them.
• Maintained local repository (Git) and remote repository (GitHub) using Push, Pull, Clone commands and reviewed with teammates.
• Automated Test Cases using Page Object Model (POM) pattern with Page Factory to design and write tests using Java and Selenium WebDriver.
• Provided Bug/Defect reports to the development engineers and worked directly with development engineers to troubleshoot potential problem areas.
• Wrote CSS selector and XPath manually to work on dynamic Web elements.
• Used Jenkins to run Cucumber Automated Tests. Automated REST API Tests in Cucumber/Selenium Framework.
• Once the Script compiled, Framework used to send the automation reports over email using Continuous Integration (CI) tool Jenkins and version control system GitHub.
• Expertise in managing dependencies using Maven management build tool in POM.xml for Java Automation Scripts.
• Created Cucumber Feature Files comprising of various Test Scenarios and Step Definitions for BDD (Behavior-driven Development).
• Performed Parameterized and Parallel Testing using TestNG, with a Report (Extent-Report dependency) in HTML .
