Hi, I'm Aqib Mehmood.

I have around four years of experience as a QA Engineer, primarily focused on testing the Blockchain & AI applications.

About

Hello, my name is Aqib Mehmood, and I am based in Karachi, Pakistan. I'm working as a Software Quality Assurance Engineer with a focus on ensuring the quality and security of decentralized applications (dApps).
I have 3 years of experience as a QA Engineer and with that my expertise includes manual & automated testing, APIs testing, and Performance testing. I have hands-on experience with automated testing tools such as Cypress and Selenium WebDriver for web UI automation, postman for API testing and JMeter for load and stress testing.
While working in a blockchain company, I have gained proficiency in testing blockchain applications and conducting unit testing for Smart Contracts. Furthermore, I also have experience in security testing, as previously I was engaged in bug bounty hunting for web2 applications.
I am also actively learning the trending tools and technologies for QA automation, with the goal of becoming an SDET.
