• Developed MEAN stack application for user's dataset required by the test automation framework using Angular 1.• Developed Test Scripts for Automation Testing using WebDriver/Protractor and also modified existing scripts asper the new builds.• Open source contribution to cucumber and protractor library in Github (karthiktv006)• Developed grunt plugin for test execution - registered in npm with the name grunt-protractor-cucumber.• Setup mobile testing with protractor using appium to run scripts in iOS and android.• Created page object to locate elements using CSS Selector, id, name or xpath with firebug and firepath add on.• Jenkins was linked with the automation scripts to run a nightly batch process whenever new build was deployed.• Constructed a library of reusable JavaScript objects to perform common group UI functionality with simplicity ofhaving a single line of code as per the functionality added by any view script.

• Created Automation scripts using Selenium WebDriver and developed an automation framework called STAF (Selenium Test Automation Framework).• STAF framework was based on data-driven and keyword-driven testing techniques.• Created functional, regression and End2End test cases in test case management tool (Quality Center and Zephyr)• Performed various testing activities like GUI testing, functional testing, browser compatibility testing, regressiontesting.

Bloomington/Normal, Illinois Area

• Based on Statefarm’s Java + Selenium Automation Framework, WAT (Web Application Testing) test scripts were designed and developed.• Selenium WebDriver was used as backend API for the automation scripts.• STAF/STAX was used to execute the scripts in remote drones in various other browsers.• WAT framework had in build report generation tool which was used to evaluate the result of test scripts and suite.• Developed wrapper class on top of the WAT called UIF which was more structured as project and reusability of the script was enabled.

• A mathematical model of colloidal aggregation in ink pigments based on DLVO Theory and Smoluchowski Kinetics is built using MATLAB.• Theoretical study of ink absorption as a function of fluid properties and media properties using Computational Fluid Dynamics Technique and Flow 3D software.

• Built a T-Junction Microreactor and compared with batch reactor. Energy efficient, higher yield & better reaction time were observed in former case.• An extensive detail-oriented analysis & problem solving skills were required to interpret reaction kinetics as function of velocity & flow rate.• All results were based on mathematical, simulated & experimental model of T-Junction Microreactor.

• Generated geometric model of Spiral Plate Heat Exchanger (SPHE) using the specifications of a real time heat exchanger using AutoCAD and simulated by exporting the cad file into ANSYS Fluent.• The simulated results indicated significant accuracy with experimental results and hence, correlation between various dimensional numbers was developed for this model.
