About
I am Navatha Merugu, a QA Engineer with 8 years of hands-on experience in manual and automated testing, including Cypress automation with JavaScript. I excel at developing, executing, and maintaining automated test suites for regression and release cycles, and I am proficient with Git/GitHub, CI/CD (TeamCity), and JIRA for defect and test management.
With over 13 years of IT experience across industries such as airlines, petroleum, finance, and insurance, I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure high-quality software. I also enjoy exploring new tools, like GitHub Copilot in VS Code, to write and improve automation scripts, and I stay updated on STLC and Agile practices.
