Develop Comprehensive Test Coverage: Build automated test scripts for functional, regression, performance, and integration testing across web applications, APIs, and microservices.
Integrate Quality into CI/CD: Embed automated tests into CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or Azure DevOps, ensuring quality gates are met before deployment.
Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with developers, product owners, QA engineers, and other test automation teams (DEC, architecture teams) to understand application features, share best practices, and ensure consistent quality standards.
Analyze and Improve: Monitor test results, identify patterns and issues, work with developers to resolve defects, and continuously improve test coverage and quality metrics.
Champion Best Practices: Document test processes, standards, and best practices, and mentor team members on test automation approaches and tools.
Stay Current with Technology: Keep up with emerging testing tools, frameworks, and methodologies, bringing innovative approaches to improve our testing efficiency and effectiveness.
