BMC Software India Pvt. Ltd. Mar 2022 - Apr 2023

Staff SQA Engineer

Project/Application: TrueSight server automation(TSSA) Tech Stack: Python, Robot (RBF), Postman, Swagger, Windows, Linux-RHEL (x86,x64), OEL, Ubuntu, Git, Jenkins, TestTrack, SharePoint, JIRA, Confluence.

Tested patching of servers on Windows, Linux (RHEL, OEL), CentOS, and Ubuntu OS platforms for the patch management module, identifying 20 new bugs.

Executed over 500 manual UI test cases, documenting findings in TestTrack, contributing to a robust product with less than 0.1% crash rate.

Executed approximately 50 manual API test cases using Postman and Swagger, documenting findings in TestTrack. Introduced API automation for server patching, automating 30 APIs (GET, POST, PUT) using Python and the Robot framework, reducing manual testing efforts by 40% and improving accuracy. Automated 100 BLCLI (BladeLogic) commands for test scripts, enhancing code reusability and accelerating test script development.

Analyzed daily test reports to identify recurring issues, reducing the defect recurrence rate by 30%. Performed code correction and optimization by designing 5 new Python keywords for patch analysis, eliminating unwanted and redundant code.

Trained 2 new employees on QA tools and automation used in the project, enabling them to understand the product and workflows within a month.

Documented steps for automating workflows for new employees. Modified Jenkins pipeline for patching by adding new test cases and improving existing ones, reducing execution time by 20%.

Provided comprehensive regression and production testing support before deployment. Key Achievements:

Challenge:

There was no automation for patch analysis and remediation of RHEL 7, 8, 9, OEL 8, 9, and Ubuntu servers in the Patching module.

Initiative:

Initiated and led the implementation of functional and API automation for six critical APIs: Patch Catalog API, Patch Analysis Job Creation, Patch Analysis Job Execution, Patch Remediation Job Creation, Deploy Job Creation, and Compliance API.

Execution:

Developed comprehensive automation using Python and the Robot framework, significantly enhancing testing efficiency and accuracy.

Impact:

Improved testing efficiency and overall project quality, reducing manual efforts by 40% and significantly enhancing delivery timelines. Automated testing processes became seamless, ensuring robust and reliable API testing. TCS (Tata Consultancy Services) Oct 2017 - Mar 2022 Automation Tester

Project/Application: PDS (Payment Data Store) for DNB Bank, Norway Performed testing in the mainframe for all domestic (salary, mass, kide, faktura) and international (SEPA, Propay) payments.
