• Over 20 years total of QA testing and test automation experience• Designed, built and maintained QTF (Quorum Test Framework) which is a high tech, cutting edge piece of test automation software that uses HP’s Unified Functional Testing (UFT) to make user friendly, codeless scripts• Designed, built and maintained ScriptScheduler which runs batches of the Unified Functional Testing (UFT) scripts and reports the results via email. Also, built in many features including a pause control to pause the script execution• Maintained and enhanced FASTT framework which is a cutting edge piece of test automation software that uses HP’s Unified Functional Testing (UFT) to make user friendly scripts• Limitations with early versions of UFT required for me to invent my own Object Repository• Involved in dataload project that required using specific data pulled from Excel to populate SQL database through Java Beans (EJB). LoadRunner is not designed to do this. It is only supposed to be able to input similar data• Wrote WinRunner scripts to replace their VB Make which is software that builds executables and dlls. The VB Make was very limited in its functionality so he improved on it by writing scripts that would do the builds and would notify the user when the builds were completed or failed and would report which files did not build. • Used HP’s Quality Center ALM to run test scenarios, maintain test cases and store test plan• Worked in Agile environment using the standard methodologies for development process
Listed skills include Qtp, Vb Script, Vb.Net, Vbscript, and 16 others.
