• Automated Testing: Implement and maintain automated testing tools and scripts to ensure consistent and reliable test execution. Integrate automated tests with Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines to improve testing efficiency and speed.
• Bug Tracking and Reporting: Identify, document, and report bugs, errors, and defects using bug tracking tools (e.g., JIRA, Bugzilla). Collaborate with development teams to help reproduce and resolve defects in a timely manner.
• Regression Testing: Conduct regression testing to ensure that new software updates do not negatively impact existing features and functionalities. 
• Performance and Load Testing: Conduct performance, load, and stress tests to ensure the software can handle expected user traffic and use cases.
• Continuous Improvement: Continuously assess and improve testing methodologies and processes. Suggest improvements to the development process based on testing results and quality analysis.
• Documentation and Reporting: Maintain accurate documentation of test cases, test results, and issues discovered during testing. Create detailed test reports, summarizing the quality of the product and any risks related to potential defects or performance issues.
• Collaboration & Communication: Work closely with development teams to ensure quality is built into the software from the outset. Communicate test results, risks, and quality concerns to stakeholders.
• Adherence to Standards: Ensure software adheres to industry standards, internal guidelines, and best practices for quality assurance and testing.
