Designed and implemented from scratch an automated integration test framework for electronic medical records services.Wrote Java library to be consumed by each API of 30+ internal microservicesManually-coded tests were replaced with minimal code, and intuitive directory of JSON files for each service package. Tests were separated into code (behind the scenes), data input/output (JSON), and configurations/specifications for tests themselves (also in JSON).TestNG use of DataProvider allows for full test-coverage due to dynamically creating tests for each combination of data (as specified by user, based on priorities, stage, build)Minimal onboarding with Kubernetes build scripts and consuming utility package.Collaborated with QA from other teams to configure jobs in Jenkins for reporting by email/Slack/Atlassian as well as maintain visualization dashboard of test run history.
