Internship at iFast

🗓️  Date:  23 Jan  2026 📌 Title: First experience with UAT Task Description I was completing the rest of the refinements of Payroll Credit Backoffice that I didn't manage to finish yesterday. By noon, I finished all my tasks given by my SV. The Payroll Credit Backoffice, Scan & Pay, Business Banking Web Revamp are now pending review. So, I updated my daily logbook to not waste time and be idle. A colleague asked to help him with UAT for IGP and IFA, which they provided an excel sheet on what to test (test steps) and test account login credentials. My task was to follow the test steps and check if all displayed info are correct, and to see if there are any UI issue on the website and mobile web. Both IFA and IGP have almost the same interface, just different brand colours. If I've found any issue, I can raise it in another slide sheet they provided. During the UAT, I found issues like inconsistent font size, wrong rounded tip. I screenshotted the UAT version and the ...

🗓️  Date:  27 Jan  2026 📌 Title: UAT = Spot the Difference game Task Description I continued working on iFAST Pay UAT and identified additional UI-related issues. These included an incorrect colour theme being applied to the drawers in the Cards module, which should have been in light mode. I also noticed that the font used in the UAT version did not match the mockup. I informed my supervisor about these issues for further action. Challenges & Solutions There were no major challenges today. I made an effort to keep myself busy, as I dislike being idle and wasting time.

Through this process, I learned how to conduct UAT in a more systematic manner. First, I skim through the entire page to review the content, as it is usually correct and fr...

  🗓️  Date:  26 Jan  2026 📌 Title: iFAST Pay UAT Task Description I spent almost the entire day working on iFAST Pay UAT. This involved testing the app on our test device by going through each flow step by step to ensure all functions were working properly. At the same time, I reviewed the UI to check whether it matched the mockups. Any issues or concerns I identified were reported in Jira, our project management tool, where the IT team and other testers can view and take action on them. I discovered several UI-related issues, including incorrect padding, inconsistent font sizes, improper spacing between elements, and the use of incorrect icon libraries. For each issue logged in Jira, I created a new board and included details such as the title, description, tester name, and date. I also used a comparison table to display the UAT and mockup versions side by side for clearer reference. Before lunch, we had a fire drill, so everyone had to walk down the stairs from...
