• In this position, we transformed the quality assurance approach for a web application, implementing Playwright for test automation. Leading a team of two QA engineers, we drove significant improvements:
• ➢ Introduced test automation, cutting regression testing time from one week (about 40 hours) to just one day (8 hours), achieving an 80% increase in efficiency
• ➢ By integrating QA early in the development cycle (shift-left), we enabled quicker identification and resolution of issues, enhancing the project's release velocity by approximately 20%
• ➢ Deployed a Datadog dashboard to monitor test health, which led to a 30% boost in test coverage and a 10% reduction in bug escape rates, substantially improving the effectiveness of test cases.
• ➢ Developed and executed test strategies specifically designed for the unique requirements of each project, overseeing both manual and automated testing efforts.
• ➢Focused on strengthening the QA team by promoting professional development and encouraging knowledge sharing.
