About
I am a Software QA Engineer with hands-on experience in manual testing for web applications and a background in Laravel development. I create test documentation, validate application behavior, and report defects with clear reproduction steps. I am continuing to develop my automation skills using Playwright while contributing to testing and release activities in Agile teams.
My software development background helps me understand application flows, business requirements, and data behavior when testing. In my current QA internship, I work with Project Managers and Developers to validate features, verify fixes, and support release testing across three web applications. My focus is on practical testing evidence and clear communication, while continuing to improve my Playwright automation skills.
