Deep understanding of XPath, CSS Selectors, and advanced web UI automation concepts. Proven experience with frontend and backend testing, ideally for retail store applications or enterprise-scale systems. Familiarity with API testing (REST Assured, Postman, or similar). Experience integrating automation with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps). Thorough understanding of QA methodologies, SDLC, and defect management processes.
