Test Planning: Collaborate with stakeholders to understand project requirements and define test objectives, strategies, and test plans. Identify test scenarios and design appropriate test cases.
Test Execution: Execute test cases, record test results, and identify defects or areas of improvement. Conduct different types of testing such as functional testing, regression testing, integration testing, and performance testing.
Defect Management: Report identified defects in a clear and detailed manner, including steps to reproduce, expected results, and actual results. Work closely with developers to investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve issues.
Test Documentation: Create and maintain test documentation, including test plans, test cases, and test reports. Document test results, observations, and any other relevant information to support the testing process.
Test Automation: Develop and execute automated test scripts using testing frameworks and tools. Identify opportunities for test automation and implement efficient automated testing solutions.
Collaboration and Communication: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including developers, product managers, and business analysts, to ensure clear understanding of requirements and effective communication throughout the testing process.
Continuous Improvement: Continuously explore and recommend improvements to testing processes, tools, and methodologies. Stay up-to-date with industry trends and emerging technologies in software testing.
Test Environment Setup: Set up and configure test environments, including hardware, software, and network configurations, to ensure accurate and reliable testing.
Performance Testing: Conduct performance testing to assess the scalability, stability, and responsiveness of software applications. Identify and address performance bottlenecks or issues.
Security Testing: Perform security testing to identify vulnerabilities and ensure software compliance with security standards and best practices.
