⚡ Why teams work well with me

🔍 Evidence-first bugs

Every defect I log has steps, expected vs actual, screenshots and source proof. Developers fix faster, nobody argues.

🧬 Data-level testing

I don't stop at the UI. I compare API response ↔ UI ↔ source PDF to catch the mismatches that slip through.

🤖 AI-output skeptic

OCR and LLM extraction can look right and still be wrong. I validate every field against ground truth.

🐞 Sample: how I write a defect

Click to expand (format example)

Field	Detail
Title	Closing balance extracted incorrectly for multi-page statement
Severity / Priority	High / P1
Environment	Staging · Chrome latest
Steps	1. Upload 3-page bank statement PDF → 2. Wait for extraction → 3. Compare closing balance with page 3
Expected	Closing balance matches source PDF
Actual	Value taken from page 2
Evidence	Screenshot + API response JSON + source PDF page
Impact	Wrong balance can affect loan decision
