Role Overview :

Are you passionate about Test Automation and building robust frameworks? We are seeking a Test Automation Expert to lead and evolve our testing framework for WeChat Mini Program apps. You’ll work on a high-impact initiative that drives automated test creation and execution inside Weixin Dev Tools—while exploring innovative approaches (including functional agents) to speed up authoring, maintenance, and reliability.

You’ll work closely with a supportive team focused on quality at scale, engineering excellence, and continuous improvement. Along the way, you’ll gain hands-on experience with modern JavaScript tooling, multi-platform automation, and end-to-end CI/CD practices.

This role offers strong long-term growth, giving you ownership over the framework’s direction, best practices, and meaningful innovation in the test automation space.

Responsibilities:

Collaborate with the project lead to enhance and scale our Testing Framework for Weixin Dev Tools (WeChat Mini Program E2E and regression testing)
Design and develop JavaScript/Type Script modules, utilities, and helpers for test authoring, data management, and execution

Integrate and optimize third-party tools for orchestration and evaluation (e.g., WebdriverIO, Selenium, Appium), including parallelization and CI/CD pipelines

Define and support QA testing phases (smoke, regression, integration, E2E, UAT) and implement best practices in test design and maintainability

Build reusable patterns (page objects/screenplay), selectors, fixtures, and stubs/mocks to stabilize and scale the test suite

Introduce innovations to accelerate testing—such as functional agents for code generation, smart selectors, self-healing locators, and automated test data strategies

Contribute to metrics and reporting: coverage, stability, flakiness rate, pass/fail trends, and time-to-detect/repair

Support continuous validation, experimentation, and automation throughout development cycles; mentor contributors to the framework

About the candidate:

A minimum Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a technology-related field

Strong expertise in JavaScript (and ideally Type Script) with solid Node.js fundamentals

Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks and tools; knowledge of WebdriverIO preferred;
Appium and Selenium are welcomed

Proven QA tester background with understanding of testing phases, test design techniques (e.g., equivalence partitioning, boundary values), and defect lifecycle

Experience building or maintaining automation frameworks, including utilities for data management, reporting, and CI integration

Familiarity with mobile or mini‑program testing; exposure to Weixin Dev Tools or the WeChat Mini Program ecosystem is a strong plus Comfort with asynchronous programming, selectors strategy, network interception/mocking, and flaky test mitigation

Curiosity, autonomy, and a collaborative mindset—especially on exploratory and framework-level initiatives
