Testlify helps you identify the best talent from anywhere in the world, with a seamless experience that candidates and hiring teams love every step of the way.

1

Selenium

Selenium is commonly used in quality engineering as a tool for automating the testing of web applications. It can help identify defects and issues in web applications, and can save time and resources by automating the testing process. Selenium can be used to test the functionality of web applications, as well as their performance and compatibility with different web browsers and operating systems.

2

Mobile Automation

Mobile automation testing can be particularly useful for quality engineers, as it allows them to automate the testing process and identify defects or issues more efficiently. It can also help ensure that mobile applications are tested on a variety of devices and operating systems to ensure that they are compatible and perform well on different platforms.

3

Test Management tool

Test management tools are software applications that help organizations plan, track, and report on testing activities. Test management tools can be particularly useful for quality engineering teams, as they can help organize and track testing efforts, identify and resolve defects, and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the testing process.

4

Strategy Techniques

Strategy techniques in quality engineering refer to the methods and approaches used to plan and execute quality control efforts. These techniques might include identifying key quality objectives, developing and implementing quality control processes, and monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of these processes. Strategy techniques can help ensure that quality control efforts are aligned with business goals and are effective in identifying and addressing potential quality issues.

The test is created by a subject-matter expert

Testlify’s skill tests are designed by experienced SMEs (subject matter experts). We evaluate these experts based on specific metrics such as expertise, capability, and their market reputation. Prior to being published, each skill test is peer-reviewed by other experts and then calibrated based on insights derived from a significant number of test-takers who are well-versed in that skill area. Our inherent feedback systems and built-in algorithms enable our SMEs to refine our tests continually.
