Responsibility

Test Requirement Analysis:

• Identify requirement defects by adopting shift left levers eg: Requirement Ambiguity Matrix, ADPART ,and other cognizant solution accelerators
• * Perform KT on user stories.
• Design estimates (time /effort) based on the requirements analysis.
• In case of critical technology, create test scripts and seek review inputs from the test lead.
• Understand and analyze the requirements (through review of requirement document) to identify the testable requirements.
• Prioritize the requirements based on the time required.
• Prepare highlevel flow documents.
• Organize and drive the requirement walkthrough session.
• Prepare/Review the flow diagrams.
• Seek clarification on the requirements from the customer.
• Perform Proof of concepts or evaluate different tools if required.
  
  

Test Strategy And Test Planning

• Document the test plan based on the understanding of test strategy (covering project details, items under scope, items out of scope, type of testing, assumptions, dependencies, risks foreseen, entry/exit criteria) for each cycle.
• Seek signoff on the test plan from the client.
• Provide inputs for test plan creation including number of test scenarios and test cases used for estimation of the test cycles /schedule, dependencies etcin addition to the other dependencies from various teams like environment availability , third party interfaces and test data etc.
• * Participate in collaborative sprint goal definition session to determine what the team plans to achieve during the sprint.
• Participation in status calls/meetings between onsite and offshore teams to discuss the project status.
  
  

Test Design Techniques (Design Principles/tools/patterns)

• Identify the test scenarios based on the understanding of systems, interfaces and application.
• Identify end to end business critical scenarios.
• * Assist / support development team in unit test automation, identify environment dependencies, deployment strategies, build release cycle, test data dependencies etc.
• Create/Review the test scenarios (created by the Quality Engineer.
• * Identify and validate test scenarios for automation.
• * Perform In Sprint automation.
• * Perform Automation Script Maintenance.
• Share created test scripts with test lead for review.
• Conduct pilot automation test run to validate the test scripts.
• Validate the test environment set up.
• Participate in customer review meetings and seek sign off by customer on the review comments.
• Identify regression scenario and the impacted areas on need basis.
• Perform effective automation through automated code coverage tools/ manual code review with minimal review comments.
• Develop supporting structures for all test automation including mocks, stubs, & test harnesses.
