• Establish metrics: Define and drive the adoption of quality metrics to measure test effectiveness and overall product quality.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date testing documentation, including test cases, plans, and scripts.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in software quality assurance or test automation.
• Testing Methodologies: Deep knowledge of QA methodologies, tools, and processes.

• Testing Types: Experience with various types of testing, including functional, regression, performance, load, API (Experience with REST API testing using Postman, or similar tools) And user acceptance testing (UAT).
• Tools: Familiarity with bug tracking and project management tools (e.g., JIRA), version control systems (e.g., Git), and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins).
