Raffy Begaso

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented Software Tester with hands-on experience in both manual and automation testing across various types of web-based and enterprise-level applications. My approach to quality assurance is grounded in understanding end-user needs and ensuring software reliability, performance, and usability before release.

With over a year of experience in software testing, I have contributed to different stages of the software development life cycle, from requirement analysis and test planning to execution and defect reporting. I have worked closely with cross-functional teams in Agile environments, where daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and continuous integration were part of the routine. This has helped me build strong communication skills and foster collaboration with developers, product owners, and fellow testers.

My core strengths lie in crafting well-structured test cases, executing test scripts, and identifying bugs that could affect the user experience. I have worked on regression, functional, and UI testing using tools like Postman for manual API testing, Selenium WebDriver for browser-based automation, and test case management platforms such as TestRail and Jira.

One of my notable experiences includes testing a large-scale platform that supported both desktop and mobile access, where I helped identify critical issues during sprint cycles that could have affected global users. I also supported data-driven testing by connecting Excel sheets to dynamic web forms, enhancing automation efficiency.

I take pride in being a fast learner and always open to new tools, technologies, and best practices in QA. Even when a new project or domain is unfamiliar to me, I adapt quickly and am not afraid to ask the right questions or dig deeper to understand the product inside out.

As a professional based in the Philippines, I am looking to expand my freelance testing career through opportunities that allow me to apply my current knowledge while also challenging me to grow further. I am confident that I can add value to any QA team with my work ethic, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering high-quality results on time.
