   Participated in regular code reviews to ensure adherence to object-oriented design principles, enhance code maintainability, and promote effective collaboration within the team. Contributed to QA weekly meetings and project discussions, addressing enhancement and modification requests, as well as defect-related issues, fostering clear communication and teamwork. Configured Jenkins jobs to automate the execution of test suites daily, implementing triggers for automatic test runs with each new build, thereby increasing efficiency and minimizing manual effort. Leveraged Karate API to optimize API testing by validating request and response payloads, headers, and status codes while utilizing advanced features like data-driven testing, assertions, and parallel execution to enhance efficiency and coverage. Executed SQL queries to validate data integrity, required fields, data formats, and duplicate rows, contributing to a comprehensive and reliable data testing strategy. Used Jira for defect reporting and tracking, as well as for monitoring test execution, tracking deliverables, and managing overall test progress effectively. Enhanced and maintained an automation framework using Selenium WebDriver, TestNG, Cucumber, JDBC, Karate API, and Maven, ensuring a scalable and maintainable solution for automated testing. Applied the Page Object Model (POM) design pattern by utilizing property files for storing element locators and developing ObjectMap utilities, enabling streamlined maintenance and reusability of UI elements in automated tests. Harnessed advanced Selenium WebDriver functionalities, such as handling multiple windows and frames, capturing screenshots, managing cookies, and executing JavaScript code, to perform complex test scenarios and validate web application robustness.
