QA and Test Automation Engineer

South HollandHybrid40 hours/week6-12months

This assignment supports the digital management, editing, consultation, and publication of permit information, decisions, and regulations within a digital facility. Within this facility, various user roles and organizations work with interconnected data, modification processes, and historical information. Reliable and secure operation of these processes and data streams is essential.

The assignment focuses on strengthening and ensuring functional and technical quality through hands-on test engineering and sustainable test automation. The goal is to enable early and repeatable testing of changes, quickly identify regressions, and provide the development team with reliable and useful test feedback. This involves testing both the frontend and the underlying APIs/services, backend, and data streams.

In addition to functional operation, attention is paid to quality aspects such as data integrity, roles and rights, organizational boundaries, concurrent editing, and recovery behavior. The test automation must be maintainable, reusable, reproducible, secure, and transferable.

What you do

  • Translate requirements, user stories, and functional risks into concrete test scenarios and verifiable test cases
  • Design, set up, maintain, and develop automated functional, integration, regression, and end-to-end tests
  • Full-stack testing of the digital facility, validating the coherence between the user interface, APIs/services, backend, and data streams
  • Test important processes, including building and modifying permit information, decisions, publication, historical information, searching, peer review, and document export
  • Set up positive and negative test scenarios for, among other things, roles and rights, data integrity, data visibility, concurrent editing, and recovery behavior
  • Manage and improve the test framework, reusable test components, test data, and configuration of test environments
  • Integrate, maintain, and execute automated tests within the CI/CD pipeline
  • Analyze and structurally resolve failed and unstable automated tests, distinguishing between application errors and problems in test code, test data, or test environment
  • Document findings reproducibly, support technical research, and perform retests
  • Analyze and report test results, test coverage, findings
  • Document the test automation solution and transfer knowledge to developers and other team members
  • Carefully and securely manage and use test accounts, access data, and test data, ensuring that sensitive data is not included in test code or test reports
