Role Purpose The QA Automation Engineer will be responsible for developing and implementing automated tests to ensure the quality and stability of software applications. Will work closely with the development team to identify test requirements, design test cases, and execute tests. The primary task of this position is to write and maintain automated test scripts using various automation tools, frameworks, and programming languages. Will work with tools like Cypress, Selenium, Postman, or Appium to automate front-end, back-end, and mobile application testing, simulating user actions and interactions with the software, allowing for systematic and comprehensive testing. The QA Automation Engineer also collaborate with the development team to define test plans and strategies. Will participate in code reviews, identify potential areas of improvement, and ensure that the software meets all functional and non-functional requirements. Will also perform regression testing to verify the impact of any changes or updates to the software. Additionally, the QA Automation Engineer is responsible for analyzing test results and reporting any defects or issues to the development team. Will assist in identifying the root cause of any problems and work closely with the developers to resolve them. Will also document test cases, processes, and results to maintain a comprehensive and up-to-date record of test activities. A successful QA Automation Engineer should have a solid knowledge of software testing principles, methodologies, and techniques. The candidate should possess coding skills in languages like Python, Java, or C#, as well as experience with various automation frameworks. Should also have excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, as well as attention to detail, to ensure that all aspects of the software are thoroughly tested. Good communication and collaboration skills are also crucial, as will need to work closely with both the development team and other members of the QA team. Key Responsibilities - Collaborate with the QA team to identify test requirements, design test cases, and develop automated test scripts using industry-leading tools such as Selenium WebDriver, Cypress, JMeter, Postman, or Appium. - Execute and maintain automated test scripts using Continuous Integration (CI) tools like Jenkins, ensuring the quality and stability of software applications. - Work closely with the development team, utilizing version control systems like Git, to identify and resolve any software defects or issues, and participate in code reviews. - Design and execute regression tests using test management tools to verify the impact of changes or updates to the software. - Analyze test results using tools like Splunk or ELK stack and generate comprehensive reports to communicate any defects or issues to the development team and stakeholders. - Participate in requirement analysis using collaboration tools like Jira, create test strategies, plans, and schedules. - Continuously improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the automation testing process by staying up to date with industry-leading tools and emerging trends such as shift-left testing or Behavior-Driven Development (BDD). - Collaborate with QA and development teams to define and implement continuous integration and deployment pipelines using tools like Jenkins. - Collaborate with cross-functional teams, such as product managers and designers, utilizing project management tools like Jira or Trello, to ensure the software meets customer expectations and user requirements. - Document and maintain test cases, scripts, and other testing artifacts using tools like Confluence to ensure clear understanding and reusability of the automated test suite. - Conduct root cause analysis for any identified defects using tools like Jira and collaborate with the development team to address them. - Provide guidance and support to the QA team members, conducting knowledge sharing sessions and utilizing collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams, to foster a culture of automation testing excellence and continuous learning. #J-18808-Ljbffr
