What I Do

πŸ’» Manual Testing ****

I manually functional test & regression test the Cloudbooking v3 application. I raise defects and enhancements, using Jira, for developers to fix.

πŸ›  Non-Functional Testing

I’ve used tools, such as Jmeter, to check the non-functional side of our products to ensure usability, security, and overall performance.

πŸ€– Automated Testing

I use Cypress.io & Javascript to write automated tests, using existing manual test cases as a basis. These tests run against all PRs in the pipeline before they’re merged.

πŸ“¬Β API Testing

Experience in testing the back-end of systems, using tools like Postman to assist and look for correct syntaxes or security holes with the API.

🌐 Azure Management

I help maintain our development and test environments, using Azure Portal. This is done by health checking app services, and viewing data within Cosmos DB.

🎸 Hobbies ****

I play rhythm guitar in a cover band; I record and post solo song covers online; I play various video games on my own and with friends; I play fantasy football in two groups (my friends, and work colleagues).
