Your Fellow QA (is) Me
Hi there! I am Vladimir Chistiukhin, Your Fellow QA engineer.
Having experience in enhancing quality assurance processes across multiple projects,
I like to go through every detail, see the full picture, test the most complicated solutions, and find tricky issues.
In the last few years, my primary focus has been on:
- creating comprehensive documentation that covers various scenarios.
- engaging in the entire development process from planning to release.
- all-round testing for backend; iOS, Android, and web applications.
- adopting the best practices to improve testing strategies.
Take a look at the Projects I have been involved in, or at my Timeline.
