Ability to develop maintainable automation (reusable utilities, assertions, test data handling, reporting). Familiarity with CI/CD execution (running suites via pipeline) and debugging failures is a plus. Communication - Mandatory Clear and timely updates on task status, risks, and dependencies. Ability to raise defects with complete details (steps, logs, test data, expected vs actual results). Comfortable collaborating with Dev/BA/PO teams to clarify requirements and acceptance criteria.
