Job Description
Role Overview:
As a Manual Tester at RotaMaster, you will partner with product owners, developers, and architects to translate user stories and acceptance criteria into clear, detailed test scenarios. You will design and execute comprehensive test cases across web applications, APIs, and microservices, employing functional, regression, exploratory, and usability testing techniques to ensure the highest level of product quality.

- Perform functional, regression, exploratory, usability, and ad-hoc testing to verify software quality.
- Log, track, and validate defects using Jira (or equivalent), working closely with developers and stakeholders until resolution.
- Participate in daily stand-ups, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and retrospectives alongside Team Leaders and Product Owners to ensure timely delivery.
- Collaborate with product owners to understand feature requirements and acceptance criteria, translating them into clear test cases.
- Provide concise, actionable testing status reports and metrics to highlight coverage, defects, and risks.
- Advocate for process improvements to enhance manual testing efficiency and quality practices.
