NEWSAPP

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.softaholik.bdnewstoday
A Java-based application built with Python stacks like Django, Django REST framework, and Scrapy used for back-end functionality that serves nicely formatted, categorized news published in different online newspapers. 
I was a member of the back-end team, where my role was building the scraper, creating models, storing data in the database, and maintaining the QA side. 

Web App Automation

Joined a fintech company where manual QA was handling 500 test cases. This was very time-consuming, and handling new releases was very stressful. I joined as a test automation engineer and became the only automation engineer who captured 300 tests quickly; it was critical for humans to handle them manually.

Assure Finance UI Automation

https://github.com/masudr4n4/assure_test_automation
For this project, I used the following:
• Python for writing scripts.
• Selenium for WebDriver automation.
• Allure for reporting test results.
• Behave for the test runners.
• Gherkin for writing test cases.
• GitHub runner for CI/CD pipelines.

Test Automation with Playwright

https://github.com/masudr4n4/playwrite-boot-camp
I developed a robust and scalable test automation framework using Python and Playwright to support cross-browser functional and regression testing.

The framework features include:
• Modular and object-oriented page object model design for easy test maintenance and extendability.
• Cross-browser testing capabilities across Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge using Playwright. Tests are run concurrently across different browsers to improve test execution efficiency.
• Built-in test report generation in HTML and JUnit formats for clear reporting of test results. Detailed logs and screenshots were captured for failed tests.
• CI/CD integration with GitHub Actions to automatically run tests on every code push to different branches.
• Tests triggered, and results reported back to GitHub through GitHub Actions. This allows developers to easily identify broken changes early in the development cycle.
• Flexible configuration to allow selective execution of test suites and browser combinations based on the test requirements.
