Work Experience

Senior SDET

2021 - PRESENT

Agoda

Created the fuzz testing framework using Python and PyTest, which tested the API's key-value pair with test data suggested by OWASP. This found critical issues with the Graph QL API and saved us around USD 10,000 in booking loss.
Created the mutation testing's GitLab template used to test the robustness of test cases. This template is easy to plug in with every project using Scala and to run unit test cases with ScalaTest.
Simplified the bug logging process and categorized them under open and escaped defects. This helped us interlink the booking loss with the escaped bugs.
Reduced the velocity time by up to ten minutes by categorizing tests under the project into unit, functional, and integration tests. This only ran necessary tests with no compromise on quality.
