Support testing at all levels, including unit, component, integration, system, and UAT

Raise, manage, and track defects through to resolution in line with organisational standards

Document and report test results against acceptance criteria, maintaining traceability between stories, tests, and defects

Communicate testing status, risks, metrics, and outcomes to technical and non-technical stakeholders

Continuously develop your skills and stay up to date with new tools, technologies, and best practices

Skills & Experience

Demonstrable experience testing desktop and service-based applications
