• Build and maintain automated test scripts for critical user journeys
• Run the automated smoke pack on deployment day and report results within the release window
• Maintain the automation framework, test data and environment configuration
• Extend automation coverage each quarter against an agreed target
• Define entry and exit criteria for each release with the project manager
• Log, triage and track defects to closure, including retest and verification
