About Muhammad Mehmood
As an SDET at Blackboard, I create and execute automation scripts using Java, Selenium, Cucumber, and REST Assured, leveraging my strong knowledge of software development life cycle (SDLC) and experience with Agile and Waterfall methodologies. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to define test scenarios and requirements, implement robust automation frameworks, and conduct comprehensive testing. I have over five years of professional experience in software quality assurance and test automation, with a proven track record of delivering high-quality software solutions. I have developed and implemented automation frameworks using Data Driven, Test-Driven Development (TDD), and Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) approaches, using tools such as TestNG, JUnit, Maven, and Jenkins. I have also performed both automated and manual testing, including functional, smoke, regression, and integration testing. I hold a Bachelor of Applied Science from George Mason University, and I am proficient in version control using Github. I am fluent in English, Urdu, and Hindi, and I have obtained the CompTIA Security+ certification. I am passionate about delivering software products that meet and exceed customer expectations, and I am always eager to learn new technologies and skills. My goal is to continue to grow as an SDET and contribute to the advancement of various technologies.
