Created Data Driven Automation, an entirely new concept for test automation, which read and executed special keyword commands from a file. Built upon ATS's ADK, it eliminated the customer's need to develop custom C software which accelerated their testing process.
- Designed, developed, and maintained a servlet-driven, web-based front end for a test automation system using Java and JavaScript. Enhanced C-based test driver portion as well. Used http sessions and cookies to achieve multi-user capability and other functionality. Took over work of 3 to 4 out-sourced engineers doing this for ATS.
- Redesigned/enhanced ATS's web site by making it multi-frame, adding a product demo, changing color scheme and graphics, and adding some animation and JavaScript event handlers.
- Developed custom test automation software for Telco, Inc. utilizing the ADK. This involved creating tabular test result data using HTML with hyperlinks to actual data in test execution log files. Familiarity with Keithley, Ameritec, HP, and TTC test equipment was needed for this task. Allowed Telco to have compact, concise, and presentable test results.
- Other responsibilities: release engineer, field service engineer, test engineer, webmaster, system administrator, customer support, and marketing and sales assistant.
