ARDEN JAY D. PETRAS

Software Tester / QA Engineer API & Data-Driven Testing

Kisante, Makilala, Cotabato, SOCCSKSARGEN 9401 097*-***-**** *********@*****.*** Available: Remote / Full-time

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

BS Information Systems graduate with hands-on software testing experience gained on a live enterprise HRIS platform, including writing and executing Gherkin (BDD) test scenarios, validating REST API request/response behavior, and running SQL queries for database-level verification. Comfortable working close to the system architecture (DDD, ABP.IO, .NET, Angular) to design test conditions that actually reflect how the system behaves, not just how it looks on screen. Early-career profile, but built on real production-system testing rather than classroom exercises alone — quick to adopt formal test management tools (Jira, TestRail) and testing frameworks in a team setting.

CORE TESTING SKILLS

Test Design & Execution: Gherkin / BDD (Given-When-Then) scenario writing and execution, test case design, exploratory testing API Testing: REST API validation using Postman — request/response payloads, status codes, and error handling Data Verification: SQL queries for test data setup, database-level validation, and data integrity checks Defect Management: Structured defect documentation and tracking (spreadsheet/doc-based); comfortable transitioning to Jira, TestRail, or Zephyr

System Context: Working knowledge of Domain-Driven Design (DDD), ABP.IO, .NET, and Angular — helps translate technical requirements into precise test conditions

Ways of Working: Agile/Scrum exposure, close collaboration with developers, clear technical communication EXPERIENCE

QA Tester (Intern) — University of Southern Mindanao — UICTO

• Wrote and executed Gherkin (BDD) test scenarios for the Tabulator system, built using Domain-Driven Design, ABP.IO, .NET, and Angular, covering both functional and edge-case behavior.

• Performed REST API testing on system endpoints, validating request/response payloads, status codes, and error-handling behavior.

• Wrote SQL queries to verify data integrity at the database level and to set up test data for specific scenarios.

• Tested modules of the university's live Human Resource Information System (HRIS), tracing data through the platform to catch inconsistencies before they reached production.

• Documented defects and test results in structured spreadsheets and reports, working directly with developers to reproduce, prioritize, and confirm fixes.
