Description
Key Responsibilities: Design, develop, and maintain reusable and scalable automation frameworks using Java, Selenium WebDriver, and Katalon Studio for web, mobile, and API testing. Create and execute complex automated test scripts to cover functional, integration, regression, and end-to-end testing scenarios. Conduct API performance testing and benchmarking using tools like JMeter, Postman, or SOAP UI to ensure system robustness under load. Develop, customize, and maintain simulators to emulate real-world conditions for testing and validation purposes. Integrate automation suites into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI) and ensure smooth execution across environments. Automate repetitive manual processes to improve efficiency and reduce testing cycle time. Implement data-driven and keyword-driven testing approaches to enhance test coverage and maintainability. Collaborate with developers to identify testability requirements and incorporate automation hooks in the codebase. Monitor and troubleshoot automation execution, resolving framework or script-related issues promptly. Perform root cause analysis of defects and work with teams to implement preventive measures. Generate comprehensive test reports, dashboards, and metrics using tools like Allure or Extent Reports for stakeholder visibility. Optimize test scripts for faster execution and minimal resource consumption. Lead efforts to evaluate and adopt new automation tools or frameworks to stay ahead of industry trends. Mentor junior team members, conduct knowledge-sharing sessions, and document automation best practices. Required Skills and Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. 4-6 years of hands-on experience in automation testing or engineering with a strong focus on Java programming. Advanced proficiency in Java, Selenium WebDriver, and Katalon Studio for building robust automation frameworks. Expertise in API performance testing using JMeter, Postman, or similar tools, with a focus on latency, throughput, and scalability. Demonstrated experience in simulator development and maintenance for testing complex systems. Strong knowledge of CI/CD integration with tools like Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or Bamboo. Proficiency in version control systems (e.g., Git) and branching strategies. Experience with test management tools like JIRA, Rally for planning and tracking automation efforts. Ability to design and implement hybrid, data-driven, or keyword-driven automation frameworks. Familiarity with RESTful and SOAP API testing, including automation of API workflows. Solid understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies and the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC). Proficiency in writing advanced SQL queries for database validation and test data preparation. Excellent problem-solving skills, with a proactive approach to identifying and resolving technical challenges. Strong verbal and written communication skills for effective collaboration with cross-functional teams. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with mobile automation tools like Appium or cloud-based platforms (e.g., BrowserStack, Sauce Labs). Exposure to additional performance testing tools like LoadRunner or Gatling. Certification in ISTQB Foundation/Advanced, Selenium, or Java programming. Knowledge of containerization tools like Docker for test environment setup. Familiarity with scripting languages like Python or JavaScript for supplementary automation tasks. Previous experience in leading automation projects or managing small teams HTSIND2025 Show more Show less
