- Test Drupal-based websites, including content types, content workflows, user permissions/roles, and theme-level behavior.
- Perform API/backend testing to validate request/response behavior, status codes, data integrity, validations, and error handling.
- Log, track, and prioritize defects with clear reproduction steps, severity/priority, expected vs. actual results, and supporting screenshots or recordings.
