Java, Selenium, Rest Assured

Key Responsibilities:

1. Test Automation Development:

• Develop and maintain automated test scripts using Java, Selenium WebDriver, and Rest Assured for web application and API testing.
• Create and implement automated test frameworks using Java and TestNG or JUnit.
• Design end-to-end test cases and implement them using Selenium for UI automation and Rest Assured for API testing.

1. API Testing:

• Write and execute automated tests for RESTful APIs using Rest Assured.
• Test various HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) and handle request/response validation, authentication, error handling, and data validation.
• Work with tools like Postman and Swagger for API documentation and testing.

1. Continuous Integration and Delivery:

• Integrate automated tests into the CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI, or other similar tools.
• Work closely with the DevOps team to ensure automated tests run in each build cycle and provide quick feedback on software quality.

1. Test Execution and Reporting:

• Execute automated test suites on a regular basis, logging results and ensuring that all critical test scenarios are covered.
• Generate and maintain test reports, including detailed logs and metrics (e.g., execution time, pass/fail rate, code coverage).
• Provide test execution feedback to developers and stakeholders with quick turnaround on issues.

1. Collaboration and Communication:

• Work with QA Engineers, Developers, and Product Managers to understand requirements and contribute to test planning.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies such as sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives.
• Collaborate to refine test cases, test data, and ensure comprehensive test coverage.

1. Bug Tracking and Resolution:

• Identify, log, and track defects using JIRA or similar bug-tracking tools.
• Work with development teams to ensure defects are addressed promptly and assist with root cause analysis.

1. Test Maintenance:

• Continuously improve and refactor existing test scripts to increase reusability and stability.
• Maintain test scripts in line with application changes and ensure automation tests stay aligned with functional requirements.

1. Documentation:

• Maintain detailed documentation of test cases, automation frameworks, and test procedures.
• Document and share automation best practices, coding standards, and troubleshooting techniques.

Skills and Qualifications:

Mandatory Skills:

• Strong proficiency in Java (Java 8+), with experience in object-oriented programming.
• Hands-on experience with Selenium WebDriver for UI test automation.
• In-depth knowledge of Rest Assured for API test automation.
• Experience with JUnit and/or TestNG as testing frameworks.
• Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI).
• Familiarity with version control systems like Git.
• Experience with bug tracking tools (e.g., JIRA).
• Knowledge of Agile methodologies and practices.
• Solid understanding of HTTP, REST, and SOAP APIs.
