Engineering Zero-Flake Quality for Modern Web & APIs
Hi, I’m Ankit Kumar, a QA Automation Engineer with 5 years of experience across manual and automated testing, including 1.5 years of hands-on Playwright automation with TypeScript. Specializing in UI & API testing, performance testing, and AI-assisted engineering with Claude, OpenAI Codex, and Anti-Gravity.
QA AI Studio — Evidence-Driven Quality Engineering
An AI-powered Quality Engineering platform that transforms a live application and its business requirements into versioned application knowledge, traceable QA artefacts, executable Playwright automation, and maintainable testing frameworks. It reports evidence gaps rather than hallucinating unsupported functionality.
Observed Application Knowledge Repository
Explores public and authenticated applications to discover pages, modules, forms, controls, workflows, validation rules, and observed APIs. Every discovery is recorded as an immutable knowledge revision rather than assumed by an AI model.
// Evidence source: Knowledge Revision v2.5
// Workflow: Checkout > Payment > Confirmation
// Requirement: REQ-PAY-014 | Test case: TC-PAY-042
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
import { CheckoutPage } from '../page-objects/CheckoutPage';
test('@regression @payment completes a verified checkout', async ({ page }) => {
const checkout = new CheckoutPage(page);
await checkout.open();
await checkout.payWithVerifiedData();
await expect(checkout.confirmation).toBeVisible();
});Enterprise Client Deliverables
Production test automation frameworks, API validation suites, and cloud CI/CD pipelines engineered for legal-tech, healthcare, and infrastructure platforms.
CenterBase – Legal Practice Management Platform
Automated and validated web workflows for a cloud-based law-practice management platform covering case/matter management, timekeeping, billing, accounting, client intake, documents and workflow automation.
Connecture – Digital Medicare Shopping Platform
Tested healthcare APIs across environments, created test scenarios, performed functional, load, and regression validation, re-tested defects and collaborated with clients during Scrum activities.
TealPd – Inventory Management System
Validated an inventory-management platform operating across 50+ locations between Austin and Houston. Automated web test scenarios with Selenium and performed cross-browser validation.
TFORM – Hybrid Digital Infrastructure Management
Tested a real-time infrastructure-management application across browsers and environments, maintained test suites, and supported defect identification and regression validation.
BRAVVOX – Social Media Platform
Performed manual and automation testing for social networking features including accounts, connections, groups, business pages and events; created test cases and validated defect fixes.
Core Engineering Disciplines
Quality engineering disciplines developed across 5 years of manual and automation testing, API validation, and AI-assisted workflows.
Enterprise Playwright TS Frameworks
Engineering scalable, type-safe Page Object Models with Chrome DevTools Protocol streaming, parallel worker sharding, and zero flake tolerance.
Autonomous AI Spec & POM Synthesis
Harnessing OpenAI GPT-4o and Claude to convert live application DOM trees and user flow recordings into deterministic, self-healing test automation suites.
Full-Stack API & Microservices Testing
Comprehensive schema validation, mock virtualization, and contract testing using REST Assured, Postman, and Python PyTest test harness pipelines.
Distributed CI/CD & Release Governance
Containerized test runners across AWS ECS and GitHub Actions with automated Excel reporting matrices and instant triage notifications.
