Available to hire
Hi, I’m Gulmira Sidagulova, a manual QA engineer with automation skills who tests web and mobile apps across functional, regression, integration, and release cycles. I have hands-on experience with REST API testing (Postman, Rest Assured) and basic UI test automation (Java + Selenium). I collaborate well with cross-functional teams in Agile ceremonies and pride myself on clear test reporting and proactive defect management.
I’m drawn to fast-paced teams and I thrive on delivering reliable, scalable web apps for global clients, contributing to quality through strong bug reporting, end-to-end testing, and user-focused validation.
