Cinemark LATAM
Validating a high-traffic platform, focused on critical user journeys such as authentication, navigation, ticket purchase, regression and integrations.

At MB Labs my approach is guided by Shift-left Testing: joining from the start of each request to support understanding, anticipate risks and improve quality before the final validation stages.
Day to day I use Gherkin, Robot Framework, Playwright and CTFL-based practices to structure tests clearly and in line with each delivery's context.
