Mazeed Shaik
Kasun is very keen on requirements and focused to achieve the goal. He is a very good automation developer and resolved complex issues in RESTful service automation. He is also good at doing manual testing, requirement capture for test cases, negative testing for the features. Keep it up and all the best for future endeavors.
Ravi Kamalendiran - Expert in Technology Leadership
Kasun is a technically sound quality assurance lead who had to also take up Management of the quality assurance team which currently numbers at almost 30. Kasun was responsible for starting us off with automation testing, creating the framework which we currently are using. He also was instrumental in planning for our module releases ensuring that key personal dependencies were avoided with the QA team. The QA team does weekly knowledge transfer sessions which was also started off by Kasun. I have no doubt that Kasun will do well wherever he goes and would like to wish him all the success at his future endeavours.
