A strong technical background in software testing, particularly in Agile development methodologies, is required. Proficiency in a programming language such as Java, Python, or C++ is necessary. Excellent communication skills are also essential to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams. The ideal candidate will have a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are required, as well as the ability to work independently and as part of a team. You will also have experience with testing frameworks such as JUnit, TestNG, or PyUnit. Familiarity with agile project management methodologies, such as Scrum or Kanban, is a plus. Proficiency in tools like JIRA, Trello, or Asana is also a plus, as we use them for project management and defect tracking. A minimum of 2 years of experience in software testing, preferably in an Agile environment.

Test Planning and Execution: Execute manual test cases for software and software applications.

Communicating Test Results and Status Updates

Effective communication is crucial in the testing process, and it’s essential to keep the QA Lead or Manager informed about the test results and status updates. This ensures that any issues or concerns are addressed promptly, and the project stays on track. • Communicating test results and status updates can be done through various channels, including:

Creating and Maintaining Test Documentation

Creating and maintaining detailed test documentation is a critical aspect of the testing process. This documentation includes test cases, test scripts, and test results, which provide a comprehensive understanding of the testing process.

Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Overview

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a structured approach to designing, developing, testing, and maintaining software applications. It provides a framework for managing the complexities of software development, ensuring that projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.

Requirements Gathering

The first phase of the SDLC is requirements gathering. During this phase, the project team identifies and documents the functional and non-functional requirements of the software application. This involves gathering input from stakeholders, customers, and end-users to understand their needs and expectations. • The requirements gathering phase is critical in ensuring that the software application meets the needs of its users. • It involves the use of techniques such as interviews, surveys, and focus groups to gather input from stakeholders.
