python, java, ci/cd, JavaScript , Kafka- all must haves
python-scripting or small utility
python, maybe create adhoc utility , create data apps
masking test data.
dump into kafka updates
read the topics and publish status updates on dashboards
tie the functions together in a script
don't need clearing or financial, preferable but just need good technical wise. we can train financial side to understand the business.
Kafka is mandatory. new clearing system will have that.
environment is java and mq and db2. but we want someone with the cloud exp to train us and take us to next level up.
load runner is not a high requirement. we have 2 that have that. its a nice to have. 3 people can do that on team.
I. WORK TO BE PERFORMED:
Performance Testing with open-source tools like JMeter, Gatling. Perl scripting, PowerShell scripting, solid Python scripting and Java.
Setting up of parallel testing environments that will be used to compare existing system business processes and data to a new cloud-based system/platform. Goal is to ensure that new system is producing correct results and performing as expected before it can become the official system of record.
The ability to take raw data, mask it and create algorithms and solutions that increase the data load that will feed into our new Clearing System and with no issues, duplicates or any other data issues that will cause it to be rejected.
Analyze business requirements and functional documents and create solid test strategies that define test environment, phases of testing, entrance and exit criteria and help to define the resources and tools needed to execute test cycles.
Design, develop and implement automated testing solutions that will be utilized in a parallel testing project (legacy versus OVAT).
Assist in the set up and maintenance of cloud-based performance and functional test environments in the Cloud (AWS) and define the steps to automate the process for continuous testing and iterations of cycles. This includes extensive knowledge of the platform and the ability to troubleshoot environmental issues that could occur in the new cloud platform in a timely manner.
II. SKILL AND EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:
Python scripting – familiarity with creating modules that multiply transactional data and other data multiplier strategies that will be used in test cycles of the Real Time enterprise application
Experience with Performance Engineering concepts and methodologies as well as cloud technologies and migrations using public cloud vendor preferably using cloud foundational services like AWS’s VPCs, Solid utility building with Python, Perl and Powershell.
Test automation using CI/CD concepts.
