01 — What it was
A product evaluation and registration system developed for the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA Ghana).
02 — Why it mattered
It streamlines how products are evaluated and registered, and helps ensure they comply with regulatory standards.
03 — My role
Senior QA Engineer | Systems Implementation Engineer at Devnest Systems, as part of the delivery team. I didn’t build the system.
04 — Technical problems
Applications move through a regulator’s stages and roles, so QA had to cover each role’s steps and check that the regulatory rules were applied correctly at each one.
05 — What I did
As part of the Devnest team, I contributed to the end-to-end quality validation and launch of PERS. I ran Playwright regression suites, supported data migration with Postman and Microsoft SQL Server, 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 for the Food and Drugs Authority.
08 — What I learned
Testing a regulator’s workflow taught me to test the rules as well as the screens: a step that looks fine can still let a product through on the wrong terms.
