Key Responsibilities
- QA Methodologies & Tools :
- Develop a strong understanding of QA best practices and the different types of testing used throughout the software development lifecycle.
- Familiarize yourself with key testing methodologies including functional testing, regression testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT). You'll be tasked with ensuring that the software works as expected and adheres to the specified requirements.
- Gain proficiency in test management and defect tracking tools (e.g., Jira, TestRail, Quality Center), which will be used to track test progress, report bugs, and manage the overall testing process.
- Learn how to document defects, report them clearly, and work with the development team to ensure timely resolution.
- Test Plans & Test Cases :
- Create detailed test plans that outline the scope, objectives, and approach for the testing process. This includes defining test strategies for different types of tests.
- Write comprehensive test cases that cover various testing scenarios, including positive, negative, and edge cases. Edge cases will test the boundaries and unusual conditions of the software to identify potential failures.
- Review and analyze requirements and specifications to design effective test cases.
- Execute test cases, analyze test results, and track defects found during testing. Ensure proper documentation for all the steps, results, and fixes.
- SQL & Scripting :
- Gain proficiency in SQL to perform database validation and ensure that the software interacts correctly with the database (e.g., checking for data consistency, data retrieval, and data updates).
- Learn to automate repetitive testing tasks using scripting languages such as Python, which will improve testing efficiency and reduce manual effort.
- You may also be involved in API testing or other forms of testing where scripting is required.
- Agile/Scrum :
- Work in an Agile/Scrum environment, participating in daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and sprint retrospectives.
- Be prepared to adapt testing efforts to the dynamic nature of Agile, where requirements can change rapidly. You'll be expected to test features and fixes that are implemented during each sprint cycle.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (development, business analysts, and product owners) to understand user stories and translate them into testable requirements.
- Actively participate in sprint activities and keep the quality of the product high while staying aligned with sprint goals.
- Test Environment Setup :
- Set up and maintain the test environments that mimic the production environment as closely as possible. This ensures that testing is conducted under realistic conditions and that bugs found are relevant and reproducible in production.
- Work with the DevOps or System Admin teams to ensure proper environment configuration.
- Conduct environment validation and ensure that all systems, configurations, and dependencies are working correctly before initiating tests.
