• Evaluate existing test scenarios and test plans.
• Collaborate within the team, working in pairs with programmers and other team members.
• Respond to change quickly, including changing, adding, or improving test cases.
• Update existing test scenarios, test plans, and test scripts as necessary.
• Plan and organize their own work.
• Execute testing on both Web front end and back-end systems (Configurations)
