About

I test software the way people try to break it: carefully, deliberately, and without assumptions. Hello! I am Vinay Krishna Bhat, I’m a Software Test Engineer with 2 years of hands-on experience in manual and automation testing, focused on building reliable, well-tested applications. Core Experience: • Manual testing with strong test case design and exploratory testing skills • Test plan creation, requirement analysis, and structured QA documentation • Automation using Selenium and Playwright • API testing: test case preparation, validation, and automation • End-to-end test automation framework development and maintenance • Scripting with Python and JavaScript • Database validation using SQL • Leveraged AI tools to assist in test case design and test plan creation, improving accuracy, coverage, and overall execution efficiency I take a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to testing. I focus on why failures occur, not just where they show up. I use AI as a support tool to improve coverage and efficiency, but I keep test logic, risk analysis, and final decisions judgment-driven. Tools don’t replace thinking. They sharpen it when used right. Right now, I’m building my foundation in security and penetration testing, with a long-term interest in working on secure, resilient systems. If breaking things thoughtfully is part of your job, we already speak the same language. Always open to connecting with people like that.
