To thrive in this role, you’ll need:
* Proven experience in Manual Testing (specification & execution) and Automation Testing.
* Strong Technical Skills: Ability to read and write test code in .NET.
* Proficiency in .NET, NUnit/XUnit, and Web Application Factory.
* Experience with CI/CD processes, integrating tests into pipelines.
* Familiarity with Git and Visual Studio.
* Experience working in Agile environments (Scrum/Kanban).
2. Desirable Skills:
We’d love to see experience with:
* Playwright for end-to-end, API, and UI testing.
