Project Description:
Worked on the mining phase which is one of the crucial phases in application modernization. This internal
project is to validate the features pushed onto the customized eclipse IDE using the Lean FT automation tool.
Developed an in-house performance profiling tool that will capture the runtime method response times,
jvm_metrics, and os_metrics. Created a dashboard in Grafana that will pull jvm_metrics, os_metrics stored in
the influx DB. This tool will output the results into the external .csv file as well as display the metrics on the
workbench UI. Also, added new features to compare the runtime method performance of nightly build with
any other build and outputs the methods that are degraded by 1 second.

Responsibilities:
 Review the latest features pushed into the mining framework
 Prepare automation workflows using Lean FT tool
 Validate the script on a remote server using Jenkins
 Develop utilities to simplify the performance testing work and test performance profiling tool features
and log performance metrics of online and batch applications
 Analyze the results and identify the performance hotspots
 Provide tuning recommendations and rerun the tests after performance improvements
 Present performance test report to the stakeholders
 Ensure there are no performance bottlenecks for the different in-house products
 Maintain the daily Jenkins pipelines jobs for the daily transformation test project executions
 Assist the client teams related to performance issues and define the best practices

Environment: JMeter, JProfiler, Jenkins, GITLAB SVN, Crucible, Eclipse, LeanFT, Groovy, influx DB, Grafana,
Dynatrace, JIRA, AWS cloud, Linux, Java, C#, etc.

This is one of the application modernizations projects which transformed the code from Cobol to .NET.
Performance testing was performed on the migrated application starting from performance testing
requirement gathering phase and drove it to closure.

Responsibilities:
 Gather performance testing requirements from the client
 Understand key performance workflows and gather test data
 Prepare performance test plan and test strategy
 Prepare workload model based on the production usage statistics
 Execute dry runs and a series of load tests
 Monitor server metrics with SiteScope, Dynatrace, and DB performance using Query store and DB
forge tools
 Creating Load Runner scripts to test customer interface, WSS – Web Self Service application
 Evaluating and analyzing 508 testing results and overseeing implementation of test plans
 Analyzed the load test results and provided code improvement areas
 After fine tuning the code, repeat execution cycles until the application performance is improved
 Publishing the performance test reports with the relevant stakeholders

Environment: Performance Center, SVN, Crucible, Visual Studio, Load Runner, QueryStore, SiteScope
Dynatrace, JIRA, Windows, C#, etc.
