Davide Ragusi enhanced the pagopa/rtp-platform-qa repository by developing and refining backend performance testing tools over a four-month period. He built and improved stress test suites for endpoints such as get-by-fiscal-code and getActivations, focusing on reliability, observability, and traceability. Using JavaScript, Python, and k6, Davide implemented robust test automation, refactored test utilities for maintainability, and introduced dynamic metrics reporting to support capacity planning and regression detection. His work addressed data integrity issues, streamlined callback handling, and reduced test flakiness, resulting in a more stable and transparent performance testing framework for the RTP platform’s quality assurance process.

In Oct 2025, performance testing enhancements for the RTP Platform QA were delivered to strengthen stability under load and improve regression visibility. Focused on stress testing the getActivations endpoint and hardening test utilities, these changes provide earlier detection of performance regressions, reduce flaky test behavior under high concurrency, and support SRTP-977 for traceability and faster feedback to product teams.

August 2025 — Key features and outcomes for pagopa/rtp-platform-qa. Focused on strengthening performance testing readiness and end-to-end RTP performance tooling. Delivered two major features with significant quality and efficiency gains, fixed key test flaws, and advanced instrumentation for traceability and faster feedback. Key features delivered: - Performance Test Suite Improvements: refactor of fiscal-code data retrieval test, renaming tests for clarity, fixes to status codes and timeouts, tuning of configuration defaults, and refactoring of the callback-finder for efficiency. - RTP Performance Testing Enhancements: new create-rtp.js script to send RTP and capture resourceIds; updated RTP sender callbacks handling and summary integration. Major bugs fixed: - SRTP-727: test refactor and fixes (rename test; fix findByFiscalCode; adjust tests). - SRTP-820: fix default values and replaceUuidWithoutDashes; refactor callback-finder.js; script adjustments. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved test reliability and clarity, reduced flakiness in performance tests, better coverage for performance scenarios, and enhanced traceability via saved resourceIds. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Test automation and refactoring, Node.js scripting, performance testing instrumentation, data fixture management, callback handling, and traceability enhancements.

July 2025: Delivered Get-by-Fiscal-Code performance testing enhancements for the RTP Platform QA repo. Implemented a new stress test script, refactored tests to shared utilities, clarified test naming, and translated logs to English. Enhanced observability with expanded metrics (requests per second, successes, failures, latency) and improved summary reporting, plus increased setup timeout to improve reliability. All changes tracked under SRTP-727 with six commits.
