• Step Definitions and Test Coverage: Create step definitions to execute QA tests on browsers or mobile devices and generate detailed reports on test coverage and results.
• Integration Testing: Ensure seamless interaction between the frontend and Golang backend, with a focus on API integration, database interaction, and user authentication.
• Full-Stack Testing: Develop and test the frontend using any chosen framework, with a database preference for PostgreSQL, MSSQL, or MongoDB (self-deployed).
• Automated Test Execution: Configure the AQA tests to run with a single command, ensuring efficiency and consistency in testing.

Key Qualifications:

• Experience with AQA Tools: Proficiency in using Cucumber, Gherkin, Calabash, WebdriverIO, Selenium, or Cypress.
