PERSONAL PROJECT
AI-Assisted Test Automation Pipeline on Azure
Personal Project Selenium WebDriver, Java, TestNG, Python, GitHub Copilot/LLM, Azure DevOps, Azure Blob Storage
● Built a Selenium WebDriver + Java + TestNG automation suite for a sample web application and used an LLM-assisted approach to auto-generate self-healing element locators that adapt when the UI changes.
● Set up an Azure DevOps pipeline to trigger the automation suite on every commit, running the tests on an Azure-hosted build agent and publishing pass/fail results as pipeline artifacts.
● Used Azure Blob Storage to archive test execution reports, screenshots on failure, and historical trend data for each pipeline run.
● Wrote Python scripts to generate synthetic test data using LLM prompts and to summarize flaky-test patterns across recent pipeline runs, helping prioritize which locators most needed self-healing. CERTIFICATIONS & AWARDS
● Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals - Microsoft, 2023
● Spot Award, Deloitte (2026) - Recognized for exceptional technical contributions in scaling test automation coverage and leveraging AI-assisted tools to optimize test script design.
● Applause Award, Deloitte (2023) - Recognized for technical excellence, driving automation coverage, and reducing regression turnaround time for critical project deliverables. EDUCATION
