Worked on multiple projects as a Test Specialist delivering high quality work for the end client. Became proficient in analysing use cases and developing test scenarios and scripts. I have undertaken training courses in order to further knowledge and understanding.Project 2 (Jan 16 - Aug 16)My role was to test the new front end web application for a healthcare client. The portal was a redesigned system for over 1.5m employees, allowing them to manage their pay slips, training and learning content and absences. Whilst working on this project I was responsible for analysing the business requirements, reviewing use cases, creating test scenarios, test script production, test script execution, defect reporting and reviewing.I designed a defect and test execution tracker for the projects Test Lead and Defect Manager. This made the process of reporting on daily, weekly and all-time statistics back to other IBM teams and the client much easier. It received positive feedback from the Project Manager and Colleagues in IBM Mainline.The test planning and documentation and the defect management for the project was performed using IBM Rational suite.Project 1 (Aug 15 - Nov 15)My role was to test the front end web application for the a major utility company.

Responsible for the generation of informative factual reports for a large client base. I was also tasked with the creation and maintenance of sample spreadsheets to allow the client to keep track of the results issued to them over the course of the project.
