Based in West Sussex, this client is a well known software company whose software is used widely throughout the recruitment industry.
They are keen to hire a recent graduate to join their software testing team. You will be working in an Agile team so your role will encompass both Test and Development tasks (although the focus will be on QA).
You should have enjoyed testing your own software developed for university projects and be able to explain the tests that you performed.
As your testing skills develop you will gain experience in:
-Writing black box and GUI test cases and designing tests to mitigate risks.
-Collaborating on some level with Programmers and business experts.
-Gaining the ability to work as part of a self-directed, cross-functional team in which you determine your tasks on a daily basis in coordination with co-workers, rather than waiting for work to be assigned to you.
This is an entry level role in a growing team. There will be the chance to work towards professional qualifications such as ISEB for the right person.
Requirements:
-You should have graduated from a degree with a programming element to it.
-Experience programming in any language would be beneficial.
-Any experience using Selenium, SOAPUI, FitNesse, JUnit or any other commercial test tool scripting languages would be an advantage.
-Familiarity with web developer tools an advantage (e.g. FireBug).
-Basic grasp of MSSQL or another relational database, plus ability to write simple SQL queries and insert update statements.
