• Contribute to the continuous improvement of Enhance’s automation framework, making it more robust,scalable, and flexible (Use of IntelliJ Idea as the default IDE using Enhance’s automation testing framework basedon Selenium).• Whenever placed on the bench, it is also a regular task to explore other tools or practices that can elevate theflexibility of Enhance’s framework. Such research exposes ideas if these tools can feasibly be integrated with Enhance or should it stand on its own (JMeter, Green Screen testing (legacy), and other small bits along theway)• Deployed to a client – RITA (Racing Industry Transition Agency – February 2020 to April 2020)o Projects handled - Testing support for their current system by providing automated processesfocused to ramp up testing, enhancing the testing practice’s efficiency.o Provided automation testing expertise to help improve current testing practices (use of IntelliJ Ideaas the default IDE using Enhance’s automation testing framework based on Selenium)o Mainly used Cucumber for the definition of the scenarios/process.• Deployed to a client – The Co-operative Bank (January 2019 to November 2019)o Projects handled - The Co-operative Bank Mobile App (version 5.7 to 5.12.1) - A New Zealandmade mobile application that addresses the banking needs of The Co-operative Bank’scustomers.o Provide manual testing expertise with the development of the banking application (use of JIRA forticket management, and project tasks, Confluence for project repo, Test Complete for test regressionrepo, Azure Devops for managing builds for the apps and crash reports, XMind for test scoping,Postman for some API triggers, MS Access and SQL Management Studio for DB data validation checksas well as logs)o Contribute extended help to other teams that needed testing expertso Facilitate Retrospective meetings from time to time, conducted some demos, and showcase testingpractices within the team, also, extending it to a wider group.
