About Faisal Shaikh

I am a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) with over 3+ years of experience in both manual and automation testing, specializing in Selenium WebDriver, Java, and TestNG.I have hands-on experience in building and maintaining scalable automation frameworks (POM, Data-Driven, Maven) and integrating them with CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins to ensure faster feedback and reliable releases. My work spans functional, regression, UI, and API testing, with proven expertise in SQL validation, defect tracking (JIRA), and Agile methodologies.At ICICI Lombard and Yes Bank projects, I contributed to end-to-end testing of critical applications, reduced manual effort through automation, and improved test coverage for high-quality software delivery. I also leveraged Log4j for logging and Extent Reports for HTML reporting, ensuring clear visibility into testing outcomes.I am passionate about optimizing testing processes, ensuring product quality, and driving efficiency in every stage of the SDLC. Always eager to learn and adapt to new tools and technologies, I aim to contribute to robust, reliable, and scalable software solutions.
