  • You also work on integrating automated tests into the continuous integration/continuous deployment pipeline to ensure that every code change is thoroughly tested before deployment.
  • You perform regression testing to identify any new bugs introduced by recent code changes and ensure that existing functionalities remain intact.
  • You collaborate with the test bench and propulsion team to prioritize and address any issues found during testing, providing detailed reports and analysis to help diagnose and fix bugs efficiently.
