.NET Test Automation Intern
Posted 2h ago0 views
The reason we are hiring
Our regression suite takes fifty one minutes and roughly one run in six fails for reasons that have nothing to do with the code. Engineers have started ignoring red builds, which is the worst outcome a test suite can produce. Across three months you become the person who fixes that.
Day to day
You start by tagging every flaky test in the .NET suite and finding its actual cause: shared database state, hard coded waits, tests that only pass in a particular order. Then you rewrite them. You will introduce Testcontainers so each test class gets a clean SQL Server instance, split the pipeline so unit and integration runs happen in parallel stages, and add a dashboard tracking pass rate and duration per build.
Who does well here
Interns who thrive in this role are stubborn in a useful way. They chase a failure to its root instead of sprinkling a retry attribute over it and moving on. You sit with the quality engineering group in our Mumbai office three days a week, and you will be expected to block a pull request when its tests are weak, including one written by someone far more senior than you.
Responsibilities
- Catalogue flaky tests in the .NET regression suite and diagnose the underlying cause of each
- Rewrite order dependent and time dependent tests using xUnit fixtures and Testcontainers
- Split the pipeline into parallel unit and integration stages to cut total run time
- Build a build health dashboard showing pass rate and duration trends
- Review pull requests specifically for test quality and coverage gaps
- Write a short internal guide on how to write a reliable integration test
Requirements
- Final year student or recent graduate, no professional testing experience needed
- Familiar with C# and able to read someone else's code without hand holding
- Basic understanding of CI pipelines and what a build stage does
- Available three days a week at our Mumbai office
- Patience for problems that reproduce only sometimes
Skills
Benefits
- Monthly stipend
- Mentorship from the quality engineering lead with a structured weekly check in
- Certificate plus a written summary of what you improved, backed by numbers
- Flexible start times around your college schedule
