As the first QA automation engineer hired at the company, I had the opportunity to build the 测试自动化 project from the ground up. I used 硒WebDriver with Java, TestNG, and Maven. I incorporated Log4J for logging test steps and error stack trace to a log file, and I added ExtentReports for generating a user-friendly HTML report to display the test results.

I automated all the critical and commonly-used workflows in the front-end web application, and the automation suite was run during regression testing period to reduce manual testing time and efforts. The QA team especially appreciated the fact that the automated tests replaced some of the most tedious and time-consuming manual test cases that involved number calculations and checking for the correct cash, bitcoin, and bitcoin cash balances in the customers' wallets within the application.

At BCAA, I was involved in a data tokenization project that required web services API testing. Since no one on my team had done API testing before, I took the initiative to build the test suite from scratch. As we were a Java shop, I used the 请放心 Java framework to test the REST API endpoints.

After creating the testing framework and the initial set of test cases, I mentored another tester on REST services and the programming syntax for writing API tests. 这个项目很成功, and the entire test suite was run on a daily basis in Bamboo, 我们的持续集成工具.

I was hired as a test lead and QA automation engineer for a brand-new Agile project at a government agency. The project's purpose was to redesign and rebuild the intranet so it could function as a collaboration and knowledge-sharing platform for employees.

在与开发团队进行一些讨论之后, we decided to build the 测试自动化 project in Python because it was the language that the majority of the developers was comfortable with. I built the 测试自动化 framework from scratch using 硒WebDriver and automated the tests for all the new features that the developers produced in each sprint.

In addition to building the entire 测试自动化 framework, 我也指导初级测试员, set up, and configured 测试管理 and defect tracking systems, performed accessibility testing for the hearing-impaired, and created the test strategy document for submission to the senior management.

The Agile project we worked on served as a pioneering example for other departments within the organization, and we frequently had colleagues visit our office to learn how we used the Agile methodology to deliver our project incrementally and successfully.

Since 2006, I have been volunteering as a mentor in the computer science mentorship program at the University of British Columbia. This program allows me to give back to the computer science department while providing guidance to students concerning the direction of their coursework and careers. Not only have I found this experience to be rewarding, I have also made some lifelong friends over the years.
