Detailed Responsibilities
Develop, structure, and maintain modular Postman test collections with advanced JavaScript assertions for response schema, status codes, latency, and business logic.
Automate collection execution via Newman CLI inside CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) for seamless regression testing.
Validate API endpoints, payload variations, edge cases, authentication workflows (OAuth2, bearer tokens, API keys, mTLS), and asynchronous webhook events.
Perform backend data reconciliation by executing SQL queries to verify database state transitions following API transaction execution.
Log, prioritize, and track defects in Jira, providing clear reproduction steps, network request/response logs, and environment configurations.
Collaborate with development and implementation teams to review API specifications (Swagger/OpenAPI) and define acceptance criteria before feature development begins.
