Description:
ð??? What Youll Be Doing 1. Manual Testing & QA Foundations
Run detailed end-to-end manual tests on desktop (React + Electron), mobile (React Native + Expo), and web (React) applications. Write clear, structured test cases and plans tailored to complex, configurable workflows. Own the quality process across multiple client environments with differing configurations. 2. Automation Strategy & ImplementationCreate and execute a test automation roadmap. Build and maintain automation frameworks using tools like Playwright, Appium, Selenium, Detox, etc. Apply smart mocking/stubbing approaches for hardware-dependent testing scenarios. 3. QA Environment Setup & Release Management
Set up and manage multi-tiered test environments (QA, SIT, UAT). Define and enforce a structured release testing process. Collaborate with DevOps to integrate testing into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.). 4. Hardware & IoT Testing
Design test plans for real-world hardware Develop simulation environments for automation when physical devices aren't accessible. Validate performance, accuracy, and hardware-software interaction under real-world conditions. 5. Continuous Improvement & Defect Management
Log, prioritise and manage bugs via GitHub or similar platforms. Track testing metrics and KPIs to measure quality and improve over time. Embed modern QA practices drawn from Agile, DevOps and automation-first approaches.
