- Perform functional, regression, API, and database (SQL) testing in areas where automation is not feasible;
- Develop and update test documentation: test cases, checklists, acceptance criteria, test plans;
- Analyze and reproduce incidents, document defects, monitor their resolution;
- Collaborate with development, support, and product teams.
Requirements
- Higher technical education or proven practical experience in test automation;
- 4-5 years of experience in testing, with at least 2 years in automation;
- Experience in mentoring or developing QA practices within a team (mentoring, code reviews, implementing standards);
- Deep understanding of testing processes and the software development lifecycle;
- Ability to clearly formulate tasks and describe defects (written and verbal);
- Experience with bug tracking and test management systems (TestRail or similar).
