Summary

With 2.6 years of comprehensive experience in software testing, including 2.3 years of specialized expertise in testing Workday HCM modules, I have developed a robust skill set in ensuring the quality and functionality of HR systems. My proficiency encompasses a wide range of Workday HCM functionalities, including Core HR, Recruiting, Compensation, Absence Management, Benefits and multiple integrations across multiple countries.

I have a proven track record in creating detailed test cases, scenarios, and data for various business processes such as job requisitions, hiring, compensation changes, personal information updates, and terminations. My hands-on experience extends to both inbound and outbound integrations, ensuring seamless data flow and system interoperability.

In addition to my technical skills, I am adept at conducting functional, regression, and integration testing, identifying critical defects, and ensuring the overall quality of the application. My role often involves active participation in defect triage meetings, collaborating with developers to resolve issues efficiently.

I am also responsible for generating custom reports based on specific data requirements and providing daily test execution status reports. My ability to work independently and as part of a team, coupled with my strong communication and organizational skills, makes me a valuable asset in any testing environment.
