Project: PERC12 Server Storage Automation

Domain: Automation of PERC12 Storage Test Cases on Dell Servers

Parent Company: HCL Technologies

As part of the automation team, I contributed to the development and execution of test cases for PERC12 storage systems, utilizing the SSA DUF (Dell Unit Framework) and Atlas frameworks. These frameworks serve as standardized solutions for automating server storage products like PERC, HBA, BOSS, and SWRAID, ensuring enhanced performance, fault tolerance, and simplified management for DellEMC's enterprise-class PowerEdge RAID controllers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Led the automation of PERC12 storage test cases, ensuring delivery in alignment with sprint goals.
• Conducted thorough PR reviews and provided valuable feedback to peers, enhancing the quality of test scripts and common modules.
• Set up and managed 16G/17G DellEMC servers across various platforms for testing automated scripts.
• Actively participated in daily scrums and weekly sync-ups to ensure smooth project execution and issue resolution.
• Delivered continuous support and knowledge transfer (KT) sessions to onboard new team members.
• Collaborated closely with Dell's team to align on requirements, deliverables, and testing strategies, ensuring seamless execution of the project.

Project: AppViewX Network Automation Platform

Domain: Automation and Orchestration for NetOps and SecOps

AppViewX is transforming the way NetOps and SecOps teams deliver network services across enterprise IT. The AppViewX platform is a modular, low-code software solution that streamlines the automation and orchestration of network infrastructure through intuitive, visual workflows. With a library of pre-built tasks and workflows, it allows teams to quickly turn business requirements into automation solutions that improve agility, enforce compliance, reduce errors, and lower costs. The platform also supports full Certificate Lifecycle Management (Create, Renew, Revoke, Suspend, Regenerate).

Key Responsibilities:

• Conducted feasibility studies and analysis for automation test cases, ensuring alignment with project goals.
• Enhanced and supported new features by modifying existing test cases and libraries using Python.
• Played a critical role in defect identification and resolution, performing unit testing and code reviews.
• Led regression testing efforts to ensure the stability of the platform with each update.
• Developed and maintained the automation library framework, ensuring its scalability and efficiency.
• Diagnosed and debugged automation-related issues, providing effective solutions to improve system performance.
