Background


About

About

I specialize in a wide range of QA activities - I started my career with manual testing, gradually gaining proficiency in automation. Currently, I perform both front-end and back-end tests, I am also able to build performance testing frameworks. I use Java and JavaScript for automation. I am passionate about Cypress technology, which I see as a future tool for automating web applications. On top of that I use Selenium, SoapUI, Rest Assured, I also know the basics of JMeter. I work in the Scrum methodology, I use Git as a version control tool and I am used to CI/CD practices. I work in both Windows and Linux environments, I can write Bash scripts and MySQL queries.

    Working for BBH allowed me to be involved both in legacy product testing and creating a new solution from scratch. Due to the massive number of online products offered by BBH I needed to adapt to the fast-changing environment – circling from one project to another my SIT team was obliged to create new test strategy and test plan for each product. That made me prepared for quick adaptation and learning about a new solution that needs to be tested.
