Top SchoolShakira Seruwagi is a Junior Quality Assurance Engineer with a decade of software experience and a formal background in software engineering from Makerere University. She has transitioned from full-stack development into QA, bringing hands-on skills in JavaScript, Cypress, Python scripting, API testing with Postman, and test automation. At Ushahidi and during Outreachy she designed and executed regression suites, implemented Cypress automation, and helped maintain test automation scripts for a real-world civic platform. Her background includes product management and team leadership—she has led a team of six testers and streamlined communication between developers, PMs, and DevOps to accelerate bug resolution. Based in Kampala, Uganda, she combines meticulous manual and exploratory testing with a developer’s mindset to improve reliability and performance. An interesting thread through her career is applying data-driven product analysis (from her product manager role) to prioritize testing effort and reduce noisy or irrelevant test artifacts.
