PROJECT

Ensuring high-quality releases at scale

iReport Police

Worked on a large-scale public safety platform designed to enable civilians to report incidents and route them to the correct law enforcement agency across the United States.

The system followed a multi-workspace architecture, where each department operates independently with its own users, reports, and configurations.

  • Performed end-to-end manual testing across complex user workflows

  • Analyzed incomplete and conflicting requirements to ensure clarity

  • Identified critical logic gaps in system behavior

  • Designed test scenarios for multi-role & multi-workspace flows

  • Created detailed test cases and QA documentation

  • Collaborated with developers & stakeholders to refine system logic

  • Undefined cross-department visibility rules

  • Incorrect report routing possibilities

  • Complex role-based behavior (Civilian, Officer, Admin)

  • Missing logic for department activation states (Draft, Pending, Live)

  • No clear handling of user data across multiple workspaces

  • Defined statewide visibility model (Primary → Nearby → Statewide)

  • Introduced fail-safe validation modal to prevent incorrect report submissions

  • Clarified department lifecycle states and their behaviors

  • Ensured data persistence for civilian users across department switches

  • Transformed vague requirements into clear, testable logic flows
