01 — What it was
A portal that gives timber industry players in Ghana’s forestry sector easy access to their relevant documents. It’s one of the three portals around the Ghana Wood Tracking System.
02 — Why it mattered
Easy access to documents supports transparency and integrity, and a forestry sector that includes everyone in it.
03 — My role
Senior QA Engineer | Systems Implementation Engineer at Devnest Systems, as one member of the delivery team. I didn’t build the system.
04 — Technical problems
Many companies use one portal, so QA had to confirm that each one reaches its own relevant documents, and only those.
05 — What I did
As part of the Devnest team, I contributed to the portal’s end-to-end quality validation and launch, alongside GWTS and its other two portals. I ran Playwright regression suites and supported data migration with Postman and SQL Server. I also took part in production deployments, and trained and supported end users through documentation and remote troubleshooting.
06 — Tools
Playwright, Postman, Microsoft SQL Server
07 — Result
Launched as part of the GWTS ecosystem for timber industry players.
08 — What I learned
On a portal many companies share, I learned to test who can see what as carefully as whether the page works.
