ADDITIONAL SELF-STUDY & PRACTICE

On my own initiative, I have been actively exploring advanced tools and
command-line practices to broaden my QA skills and technical background.
macOS Terminal & sudo commands — worked with CLI for process monitoring,
file/system management, and automation basics.
Practiced SQL (MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL) with DBeaver for backend
validation.
Burp Suite & OWASP ZAP — practiced web traffic interception, request/response
analysis, and basic security testing scenarios.
Nmap — explored network scanning and service enumeration to understand
infrastructure behavior.
SQLMap — studied automated SQL injection detection and database interaction
to strengthen backend testing knowledge.
Practiced with Postman & Swagger on REST APIs including auth flows (JWT,
OAuth).
