• Monitor execution progress, blocked testing, defects, retesting needs, and open risks.
• Support the creation and organization of test plans, test cases, and test scripts with strong attention to traceability and completeness.
• Coordinate defect triage, follow-up, and retesting to help issues move through resolution efficiently.
• Maintain accurate testing status, issues, and follow-ups in Jira or similar tools.
