• Perform thorough manual testing of game builds to identify bugs, glitches, crashes, and performance issues.Validate gameplay mechanics, UI/UX elements, controls, and audio-visual components across various device models and OS versions
• Accurately log bugs with clear reproduction steps, screenshots, or video evidence using industry-standard tools (e.g., JIRA, Bugzilla, Mantis).Prioritize and categorize bugs based on severity and impact on the game experience
• Conduct regression testing to ensure previously fixed issues do not reoccur in future builds.Perform smoke testing on daily builds and before key releases to verify build stability
• Test the game across a wide range of devices, screen resolutions, and OS versions to ensure broad compatibility and smooth user experience
• Work closely with developers, designers, and product managers during all phases of development to provide timely feedback.Attend daily stand-ups, sprint planning meetings, and QA retrospectives in Agile/Scrum environments
• Monitor game performance, including frame rate, load times, battery consumption, and memory usage.Evaluate the user experience, game balance, progression systems, and monetization flows for potential improvements
• Participate in testing of live events, in-app purchases, updates, and patches in real-time environments.Support and monitor live builds post-release to identify and resolve user-reported issues quickly
• Collaborate on test automation efforts using tools like Appium, Unity Test Framework, or custom scripts if applicable
