What are the responsibilities and job description for the Software Tester position at Jacobs?
Your Impact:
Produce complex test cases which include test scenario, test data setup, test steps and expected results for each functional area - to include "happy path" testing (positive) to exercise expected functionality, as well as error path test cases (negative) to ensure errors are handled gracefully with the goal to facilitate system delivery without high severity problems.
Multitask capability in design, implementation, and integration of software with ability to independently execute complex software development tasks.
Define business and functional requirements through user stories in Team Foundation Server (TFS). User stories are similar to use cases and should contain enough information so that the development team can break down the user stories into smaller, testable requirements.
Produce requirement test case traceability matrices that will map all functional requirements to test cases to ensure maximum test coverage.
Create test cases as described within the Test Plan which documents the Test Team's approach to ensuring all requirements are met. Test cases are created to ensure that the program functionality works as it is designed for each build.
Ensure efficient production of deliverables using industry standards and repeatable processes.
Execute a series of tests in order to validate the integration of the requirements.
Identify discrepancies when the system does not meet the expected results.
