The engineer will be responsible for developing test plans, cases, and scenarios, as well as reviewing requirements, specifications, and technical design documents to provide constructive feedback. In this role, the engineer will implement QA methodologies and develop a Test-NG framework, planning and executing functional, compatibility, and negative testing. Writing automation test scripts for smoke and regression testing is a key responsibility, along with enhancing and maintaining these scripts according to evolving system requirements.
