# THE OPPORTUNITY

Describe the ideal candidate here.

All of the GaragePlug product modules have critical workflows, and the new developers need to be more confident and fearless about making changes in the system. This will help to deliver products faster to the customers while building more robust products.

We have developed an in-house framework for manually testing the features/product before the launch. This has helped us to catch more than 1000 bugs before releasing the feature in production.

Think of this as the backbone that will help engineers from the product team to automate critical workflows and coordinate bug bashes for all the product teams. Your understanding of functional testing, writing maintainable tests, written and verbal communication skills will be put to the test.

# WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

- Collaborate with engineering, product, sales and customer success leadership to define priorities and set delivery goals.

# **WHAT AN IDEAL CANDIDATE WOULD LOOK LIKE**

- We use Spring-boot microservices for backend and Angular 2+/Ionic 3+ for frontend. We prefer someone with experience in selenium, but it is not necessary. You must have experience of working with testing frameworks like selenium, tools, or SaaS products for functional testing like [cypress.io](https://cypress.io/).
- Dedicated to testing. While testing can sometimes get repetitive and monotonous, it is critical to our engineering efforts.

You'll be working as a freelance tester using your iPhone iOS (models 7, 8, or X), with opportunities to participate in test runs at your own discretion. You don't need to have experience in software QA (though you'll get up to speed faster if you do), but you'll need to stick with it if you've never done it before. If you haven't tested before, here are some key success factors: ● You read instructions and understand them. If the instructions say that something is out of scope and you test it, you’re wasting your own time. ● You communicate precisely in English. Bug reporting is a particular form of communication that demands precision, concise wording, and logical ordering. ● You are curious. The best testers aren’t robots who follow a script. They like things that seem mysterious. They deviate from the Happy Path. They like to experiment with apps. ● You spot patterns. Similar bugs occur in unrelated software systems, so being able to sense patterns is very helpful. ● You like games. There does seem to be a high degree of overlap between testers and gamers. Part of it is the thrill of the hunt, and the desire to understand the rules of a system and how to beat them. When you start as a tester at test IO, you'll get coaching from team leaders, then participate in test cycles with more experienced testers. You'll get the opportunity to see the kinds of issues they find and how they find them, so you'll be able to learn as you go along. Apply For This Position: https://hello.test.io/ios-cs/
