Hybrid testing: trigger via API, verify via DB, assert via UI — with isolated environments.

Who is this for?

QA engineers and SDETs who want to architect a scalable automation platform used by teams—not just write a few tests.

  • Comfortable with basic OOP & Git
  • Familiar with web apps & APIs
  • Hungry to automate everything

Outcomes

  • Production‑ready POM + data factory framework
  • UI (Selenium/Playwright) + API (REST‑assured) suites
  • DB validations with JDBC & TestContainers
  • Cross‑browser + parallel execution in CI
  • Allure/Extent reports with trends
  • AWS S3/SQS/SES test coverage
  • Load testing with JMeter/k6
