WORK HISTORY
Programmer Analyst @Cognizant
IN
Designed a Java + TestNG + Cucumber BDD framework with Selenium Grid; achieved ~60% reduction in end‑to‑end regression time through parallel execution.* Built REST Assured test suites (auth, contract, positive/negative, performance baselines) increasing API coverage to ~85%; integrated with Jenkins for nightly runs.* Reduced flaky UI tests by ~70% by strengthening locator strategy, adding explicit waits, and introducing retry logic + standardized page objects.* Automated smoke and sanity packs triggered on each deployment; improved feedback time from hours to <15 minutes.* Implemented test reporting via Allure/Extent and Jenkins artifacts; enabled trend analysis for failure patterns.

ABOUT ABHISHEK WAHATULE
I’m an Automation Engineer focused on building scalable test frameworks for web and API. I work primarily with Java, Selenium, TestNG, REST Assured, and Cucumber (BDD), integrated into Jenkins pipelines with Git for version control. My goal is simple: increase coverage, shorten cycles, and ship with confidence.Recent work includes designing data‑driven and BDD frameworks, parallelizing execution with Selenium Grid, and integrating tests with CI/CD to enable faster, reliable releases. I collaborate closely with developers, PO/BA, and QA to align tests with requirements and catch defects early.Highlights:* Cut regression time by ~50% via parallel runs and optimized suites* Increased API test coverage to ~80% using REST Assured + schema validation* Stabilized flaky UI tests (reduced failures by ~70%) through waits, retries, and better locators* Set up Jenkins pipelines for nightly/regression runs and reporting* Strong with SQL for data setup and validation (MySQL/SQLite)Always learning and improving test design, observability, and DevOps practices.
