I have years of experience as a QA/Test Engineer, specializing in manual and API testing for web applications and enterprise solutions. During my time at DXC Technology, I focused on validating high-performance ASP.Net applications through end-to-end, regression, and service-level testing. I worked on REST API validation using tools like Postman and managed test cases and defect tracking in MF ALM and JIRA. While supporting clients like Banc Sabadell, I helped improve system reliability and service quality by creating comprehensive test plans, automating routine test scenarios, and ensuring alignment with business requirements.
