  • Automation & Tools

    • Implement automated testing frameworks and scripts to support continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD).
    • Use tools such as Selenium, Postman, JMeter, or PyTest to automate UI, API, and performance testing.
    • Integrate testing into DevOps pipelines and monitor test coverage and results.


  • Defect Management & Reporting

    • Identify, document, and track defects using issue tracking systems (e.g., Jira, Azure DevOps).
    • Work with development teams to reproduce issues, validate fixes, and ensure resolution.
    • Provide regular test status reports and contribute to quality metrics dashboards.
