QA Engineer (Manual + Basic Automation)
AK IT is hiring one QA Engineer in Ahmedabad to test web and mobile applications by hand and to run basic automation scripts. The post is meant for freshers, needs no experience, and states that the work is onsite.
What the testing work covers
The core of the job is manual testing of web and mobile applications. You would write, review and update test cases, test scenarios and test data, then carry out functional, regression, UI, smoke and integration testing. When something breaks, you record the defect in full and follow it until it is closed, and you work with the developers to reproduce issues and check that fixes hold.
Automation is the smaller part. You would run and maintain basic automation test scripts, with Playwright or Selenium preferred. You would also take part in sprint activities and help keep deliverables at the expected quality.
The role also involves reading requirements and raising clear questions where something is missing or unclear, and adding to better QA processes and wider test coverage. The post says you would work with developers, product teams and automation engineers.
Who can apply and what you need
The post limits applications to candidates based in Ahmedabad who are Computer Science Engineering students. It asks for a B.E, B.Tech, BCA or MCA degree, or an equivalent one. Freshers are welcome and no experience is required.
- Solid grasp of SDLC and STLC, and good knowledge of manual testing concepts
- Basic experience with an automation tool such as Playwright, Selenium or Cypress
- Ability to write simple automated scripts in JavaScript, Java or Python
- Experience with tools like Jira, TestRail and Postman
- Basic API testing, meaning checking requests and responses
- Good communication and problem-solving, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently
Not mandatory, but useful: basic CI/CD, Git or GitHub, SQL queries, and any performance testing tool.
