- Joining a collaborative team, you can expect great visibility for you and your work as you work with a range of key stakeholders
What you'll do
As a Testing Analyst, you’ll be supporting the completion of system integration, user acceptance and regression testing within release schedule deadlines, and escalating issues identified during testing to make sure adequate resolution or workaround is implemented.
You’ll be proactively identifying areas for improvement, escalating through appropriate governance routes and working with others to ensure fit for purpose, client centric solutions. We’ll look to you to provide a technical point of reference to the department on a day-to-day basis, and act as the first point of contact on key issues with associated internal and external businesses.
Day-to-day, you’ll be:
- Developing and maintaining robust automation frameworks to support both functional and non-functional testing
- Carrying out comprehensive testing activities, including smoke, sanity, and regression testing, to ensure software quality
- Working closely with business analysts, developers, and stakeholders to interpret business requirements and translate them into effective test coverage
- Executing thorough testing of web user interfaces and validate backend data using SQL
- Applying hands-on experience with automation tools such as UFT One, UI Path, Selenium, or Playwright to streamline testing processes
- Preparing test plans, scenarios, scripts, and data; execute tests and manage defects throughout the testing lifecycle
- Managing testing across concurrent project releases, prioritising tasks based on business needs and timelines
- Supporting the Test Manager in delivering key testing outputs, including test scripts, test data, and progress reports
- Providing feedback on project documentation to support the development of test strategies, plans, and schedules
- Establishing strong relationships across teams to support project delivery and maintain momentum throughout the lifecycle
The skills you'll need
To succeed in this role, you’ll need practical experience of testing design, planning and execution, along with proven application of testing methodologies. You’ll need strong organisational skills, and the ability to plan and prioritise your workflow effectively.
You’ll also demonstrate:
- Experience of systems development lifecycle
- Experience in non functional testing-load, volume, stress, security, accessibility, compatibility, penetration and back-out
- Excellent analytical skills
- The ability to gather and interpret information from a range of different sources, and in a number of different ways
