Requisition Number: 202581

External Description:

The Test Engineer creates, plans, and executes end-to-end test strategies. The role is aligned with the Testing, Tools & Methods sub-practice. The Test Engineer defines the test strategy, test plans and test case specifications, plans test resources, participates in code reviews, creates or configures the test environment, creates or procures the test data, writes the scripts that will execute the tests, executes test cases, records test case results, documents and tracks defects, and performs test coverage analysis. To fulfill this role, the Test Engineer must develop tests that identify defects as precisely as possible. The objective is to obtain as much test coverage as possible with a minimum set of test cases, repeated rework, and retest. The Test Engineer may be the Project Tech Lead on a project.

Key Areas of Responsibility

• Analyze requirements and specifications and translate requirements into a defined test strategy, test plan, and test specifications.
• Establish expected results based on acceptance criteria and test data for test cases.
• Introduce, optimize, or adapt supporting processes like defect management and configuration management to capture and manage defects, fixes, regression test cycles, and data reloads.

Teradata’s extensive library of both instructor led, and web-based training provides ample opportunity for the consultant to build and maintain marketable skills. Time has been allocated specifically for this task and each consultant is expected to have a ‘Learning Plan’. Progress against the learning plan is part of the annual appraisal.
• All consultants are expected to build value in their practice through the contribution and reuse of consulting assets. After each assigned project, a consultant is expected to evaluate the project deliverables and to contribute those items that may be useful to other consultants that may be assigned similar projects. When a new project is assigned, the consultant will search the asset repository for assets that may improve or accelerate the project delivery.
