Responsibilities

• Create automated test reports that include test coverage

     o Unit Tests: typically test a single method, class, or function in isolation, providing assurance to the developer that code

        operates as designed
     o Acceptance Tests: typically test the application to provide assurance that a higher level of functionality operates as

        designed, and that regression errors haven’t been introduced
     o Integration Tests: where we ensure that our application correctly interacts with other production applications and services,

        as opposed to calling stubbed out interfaces
