Your Responsibilities :

Containerisation of test solutions, automatically building up & tearing down to maximise cost efficiencies and auto generation of test reports for both technical & non-technical audiences.

Potential experience of working with some of the following:
Test Tooling: Cypress, Selenium, Robot, Cucumber, Molecule, JMeter
Infrastructure Tooling: Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform, Splunk
