The Software Test role is responsible for testing Computer Software Configuration Item (CSCI) code to verify the functionality meets the requirements specifications. The Software Test role is responsible for designing, implementing, and executing test plans, as well as identifying and communicating defects found. This role involves collaborating with project engineering, systems engineering, software development teams and other stakeholders to ensure there is a clear understanding of the CSCI requirements to be tested, the associated scope and approach for testing, and how the software test plans are integrated with overall system verification plans.
Job Responsibility:
Support project verification planning and software development planning
Support reviews of software requirements and interface requirements specifications
Analyze software requirements and develop and maintain test plans, test cases, and test scripts for manual and automated testing of CSCIs in accordance with project plans, process standards, and approved scope of work
Support peer reviews of software test work products and resolution of issues
Ensure directional traceability of software tests to software requirements and manage test coverage
Execute manual and automated tests to verify compliance with software requirements
Document and communicate test defects. Work with the software teams to resolve issues. Retest software to verify resolutions and close issues
Support regression test plan development, and perform regression testing to ensure that new code baselines do not adversely affect existing functionality
Manage configuration of software test work products (establish baselines and execute and maintain change control)
Support Software Configuration Control Board (CCB) meetings to review and authorize software scope and associated testing and test work product updates
Participate in software work product/capability development planning and execution (such as agile framework), including estimating and statusing work packages
Support the CSCI integration and test environment, ensuring consistency with software test plan needs. Activities supported include: System Integration Laboratory (SIL) planning for Hardware in the Loop (HIL), development of HIL test architecture(s), selection and implementation of test equipment/automation, system build and configuration, development of automation interfaces, SIL systems commissioning, ongoing maintenance, etc
