Work Experience

Senior Test Engineer

2021 - 2022

Soma Global

Created end-to-end automated tests in Cypress.io using JavaScript and TypeScript, covering 70% of the app's main functions for regression smoke testing.
Developed component unit tests in Cypress.io interacting with the React Redux store to mimic end-to-end testing in a single React component.
Integrated Cypress.io tests into a CI/CD pipeline using CircleCI and Bitbucket Pipelines to enable tests to run on every pull request to catch bugs.
Created custom integration code for Cypress.io to update Jira tickets via their APIs whenever a new release occurred.
Implemented mobile automated testing using Detox with a React Native codebase to test Android and iOS.

Senior Test Engineer

2019 - 2021

Healthesystems

Created an API using Spring Boot that talks to MongoDB and stores test results. This was adopted as a company-wide solution to record previous test results and deliver them on demand.
Developed utility methods that minimized the time needed to create new test cases. An example is an interface that allowed us to test negative and positive boundaries on JSON fields that endpoints accepted for every endpoint in any API.
Managed and created Jenkins parallel CI/CD pipeline jobs for test cases that ran against the production and testing environments.

Document Accessibility Specialist

2015 - 2016

BrailleWorks

Created Access databases using VBA and SQL to increase the workflow of my department and reduce the time between documents by 50%.
Introduced innovative and more efficient ways by using scripts and optimizing the use of CommonLook to remediate documents to reduce time to complete by 30% or more depending on the document.
Created macros using AutoHotkey and found ways to automate manual and repetitive tasks within the position.

Technologies: SQL, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), Adobe Acrobat Pro, HTML, WCAG 2, AutoHotkey

Experience

Transflo Mobile App Testing

Automated test scripts that covered workflows within the mobile app to ensure confidence in releasing new features being added. The apps are customized per customer and stemmed off of a base source. The apps needed to be tested thoroughly whenever the source code went through any changes. The automated testing reduced the manual testing needed for each release to 10% from 100% and made the process more efficient.

Testing Pipeline Implementation

An implementation of a parallel on-demand testing environment using Jenkins, OpenShift, Docker, and Selenoid. The project consisted of updating the production validation Jenkins jobs to be scalable and faster since the old implementation only had three virtual machines for execution. After the project was completed, the run time decreased from 45 minutes to 15 minutes.
