LinkedIn Profile Checklist for Aspiring QA Testers

Formula: Role | Testing types | Tools

Aspiring QA Tester | Manual & API Testing | Postman, SQL
Software Testing Fresher | Test Case Design | Selenium, Java
QA Trainee | Web & Mobile Testing | Playwright, Jira

Keep it honest: list only tools you have used in projects.

I am a software testing fresher who enjoys finding problems
before users do.

What I have done:
- Wrote 40 test cases and 8 bug reports for a demo shopping app
- Built an API test suite with Python, requests and pytest
- Automated 10 UI checks with Selenium

Skills: test case design, bug reporting, SQL, Postman, Git

I am open to QA tester and QA trainee roles. My project
links are in the Featured section.

Project: API Test Suite for a Public Demo API
Skills: API Testing, Python, pytest, Git

Description:
Wrote 15 automated tests covering status codes, response
fields, invalid inputs and missing resources. Tests run
with one command and on every push using GitHub Actions.

# The kind of test to include in a linked repo
import requests

BASE = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com"

def test_create_post_returns_201():
    data = {"title": "qa", "body": "test", "userId": 1}
    r = requests.post(f"{BASE}/posts", json=data, timeout=10)
    assert r.status_code == 201
    assert r.json()["title"] == "qa"

def test_user_has_email():
    r = requests.get(f"{BASE}/users/1", timeout=10)
    assert "@" in r.json()["email"]

Today I tested a login form and found 3 cases I missed at first:

1. Password with leading spaces
2. Email in uppercase
3. Clicking Login twice quickly

Lesson: boundary and timing cases need their own test ideas.
What edge case do you always check on login forms?

Hi <Name>, I read your post on API testing with Postman and
found the tip on environment variables useful. I am learning
QA and building an API test suite. I would be glad to connect
and follow your posts.
