In a recent project, I developed a test case for a financial application that involved multiple user roles and complex transaction flows. The test case covered edge cases and potential security vulnerabilities, ensuring the application was robust and secure. By identifying critical issues before deployment, the test case significantly reduced post-launch bugs, leading to a smoother user experience and higher client satisfaction.

I prioritize test cases based on risk assessment and business impact. High-risk areas, such as critical functionalities and security features, are given top priority. I also collaborate with stakeholders to understand their concerns and align testing efforts accordingly. By using a risk-based approach, I ensure that the most critical issues are addressed first, even under tight deadlines.

To ensure comprehensive test coverage, I use a combination of manual and automated testing techniques. I start by creating a detailed test plan that outlines all functionalities and potential risks. I then use tools like Selenium and JUnit for automated regression testing, while manually testing complex scenarios and user interactions. Additionally, I conduct exploratory testing to uncover hidden issues that may not be covered by the test plan.

When a test case fails repeatedly, I first isolate the issue to determine if it's a test case problem or a product defect. If it's a test case issue, I refine the test case to ensure it accurately reflects the expected behavior. If it's a product defect, I escalate the issue to the development team with detailed logs and steps to reproduce. I also work closely with developers to understand the root cause and ensure the issue is resolved promptly.

I have extensive experience with test automation tools such as Selenium, TestNG, and Cucumber. I have developed and maintained automated test suites for web applications, ensuring they are scalable and maintainable. I also have experience with CI/CD pipelines, integrating automated tests into the build process to catch issues early. My goal is to create efficient, reliable, and reusable test automation frameworks that enhance the overall quality of the software.
