I worked on a several projects as a QA tester at Forte Knowledge group:

During the first project I worked with 2 more testers. I was responsible for coordinating the finding bugs’ process, after what I had to send the draft of the test script to another tester, who had to execute it. My responsibilities in that project were: go to the website, check all the active links and buttons, all drop-down menus, and active videos on the web site. That was my first project in the company and it really helped me to improve my attention to details, team work and cooperation skills.

When I was working on a project, I didn't want just to meet deadlines. Rather, I prefer to complete the project well ahead of schedule. The goal was to verify that software meets its expectations and validate that it meets the user’s requirements. I created and designed test plans for development of new features; managed manual test execution based on test plans; worked with developers to investigate test failures. I managed to find bugs early, report outstanding bugs, and make sure that they have been fixed. During this project I gained more communication skills, improved my attention to details, and cooperation skills.
