Test planning
Test plans built from your specs and features, so you know what is covered, what is risky and what comes first.
About
I'm a QA engineer with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Engineering, currently working as a Test Engineer at Nokia Solutions and Networks in Ulm, Germany. After almost a decade in the company, I've worked on everything from spec review and test planning to manual and automated testing, regression and bug reporting.
That variety helped me grow both technical and people skills. I've led a regression team, served as a feature test lead and temporarily owned test execution planning as a product owner. I've also run info sessions for testers at sites around the world, so I'm used to explaining things clearly and working across time zones.
I speak English, Filipino, Bikol and a little bit of German. I'm most interested in test planning and manual testing work, where thoroughness and clear communication matter most.
What I do
Manual and exploratory testing
Hands-on testing of your web or mobile product, finding the issues that scripted checks miss.
Regression and release testing
A reliable final check before every release, so new changes don't break what already works.
Bug reporting
Clear, reproducible reports with steps, evidence and severity, so developers can fix issues quickly.
Test automation
Automated checks for your web or mobile product, so you can run them often and catch regressions early.
How I work
- UnderstandI review specs and features, ask questions, and flag gaps before testing starts.
- PlanI write a test plan covering scope, risks and priorities, so effort goes where it matters.
- TestI perform manual, exploratory and regression testing, plus checks on existing automated suites.
- ReportI create clear, reproducible bug reports and a summary of what was covered before release.

Highlights
A few examples of the kind of testing and test leadership I do. Details are kept general.
Planning test execution as a local product owner
Temporarily took on the product owner role for test execution. I owned the planning: what to test, in what order and who would do it, balancing priorities and the time available.
Feature test lead
Led testing for a feature from start to finish: understanding the requirements, coordinating testers and developers, and keeping testing on track until the feature was ready to release.
Leading the regression team
Led the regression team while running regression cycles myself, including automated tests. I onboarded new members and taught the workflow, the product features and the regression coverage, so they could run tests independently.
Teaching testers across sites
Ran info sessions for testers across the whole verification site and for other sites around the world, explaining workflows, features and coverage, and giving technical support so colleagues could keep their own testing moving.
