Questions and answers

What does a QA Engineer do?

A QA engineer owns product quality at every stage: designing test scenarios, running functional, regression and exploratory testing, and building automation at the UI, API and integration levels (Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, pytest). The specialist embeds checks into CI/CD, analyzes defects and quality metrics, and helps the team prevent bugs rather than just find them.
