Swathika Visagn
Senior Test Engineer at PwC UK
I am a very curious Senior Quality Engineer who is more driven towards automation and promotes shifting left. I have proven experience as an agile tester having strong fundamentals in manual and automation testing principles. I enjoy the entire journey from setting the automation framework from scratch to building the pipelines onto continuous integration tools like Jenkins.
My framework adds more flavor by incorporating service layer (APIs) calls with UI layer automation which we call it 'Seaming' in automation terms. I communicate with stakeholders about risks, accessibility and pain points rather than number of passes/fails.
I test with a purpose by automating business flow and add in appropriate plug-ins to make the automation reports/metrics readable for stakeholders. I also love to take part in agile ceremonies and volunteer to run retrospectives/daily scrums to keep the team self thriving in temporary absence of the scrum master.
When I'm not scripting, I love to binge on Netflix, indulge in testing communities, read about Web3 and all things Quality :-) I am a yogic person too. If anything that calms me that's a cup of chai and a morning walk in the park.
