I have extensive experience with automated testing frameworks such as Selenium, JUnit, and TestNG. I have developed and maintained automated test suites for web applications, ensuring comprehensive test coverage and continuous integration. My approach involves writing modular, reusable test scripts that can be easily maintained and scaled as the application evolves.

In a fast-paced environment, I prioritize tasks based on risk assessment and business impact. I collaborate closely with developers and product managers to understand the critical features and potential risks. I use agile methodologies to break down testing tasks into manageable chunks and ensure timely delivery of high-quality software. Regular communication and continuous feedback loops are key to staying on track.

To ensure comprehensive test coverage, I employ a combination of manual and automated testing techniques. I start by creating detailed test plans and test cases based on requirements and user stories. I then use tools like code coverage analysis to identify gaps and ensure all critical paths are tested. Additionally, I perform exploratory testing to uncover edge cases and potential issues that may not be covered by the test plan.

When defects are found, I follow a structured process to ensure they are effectively managed. I document the defect with detailed steps to reproduce, expected and actual results, and any relevant logs or screenshots. I then prioritize the defect based on its severity and impact, and communicate it to the development team. I track the defect through resolution and verify the fix to ensure it meets the expected outcome.

I have experience with performance and load testing using tools like JMeter and LoadRunner. I have conducted performance tests to identify bottlenecks, optimize response times, and ensure the application can handle expected load. My approach involves setting up realistic test scenarios, monitoring key performance indicators, and analyzing the results to make informed recommendations for performance improvements.
