I am a highly skilled and dedicated Test Analyst with 3.5+ years of experience in both manual and automated testing. My expertise lies in system testing, functional testing, regression testing, and defect management. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to driving quality assurance initiatives and optimizing testing processes to ensure efficient software development.In my current role as a Test Analyst at Tata Consultancy Services, I have had the opportunity to work on the Takeda Pharmaceutical Company project. Here, I have conducted various types of testing, including system testing, functional testing, regression testing, integration testing, smoke testing, sanity testing, and database testing for the Argus safety and Cognos applications. By collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, including developers and business analysts, I ensure end-to-end quality assurance for product releases, leading to a significant reduction in post-release defects. I excel at developing and executing comprehensive test plans, test cases, and test scripts, resulting in improved test coverage and accuracy. I am proficient in proactively identifying, documenting, and tracking software defects using tools such as HP ALM and JIRA, ensuring timely resolution and effective communication with stakeholders. Additionally, I have successfully performed complex database testing, including data validation, data integrity, and data transformation, enhancing data accuracy and reliability.An advocate for test automation, I have implemented Selenium in Java to automate repetitive test cases. This initiative has not only reduced testing effort by 40% but also improved overall test efficiency. I actively participate in Agile ceremonies, including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives, aligning project goals and timelines. Root cause analysis of defects and continuous improvement of the software development process are areas where I contribute my expertise. Furthermore, I enjoy facilitating knowledge sharing and mentoring junior team members, fostering a culture of learning and growth within the organization.In addition to my technical skills, I possess strong analytical abilities that enable me to troubleshoot issues effectively and provide valuable insights to the development team. I hold certifications in Life Science Domain, Software Quality Assurance, Selenium Foundation, and DevOps Engineering. I am also a Google Certified Associate Cloud Engineer and a B certificate holder in the National Cadet Corps (NCC).
