Testing engineers in our company are responsible for ensuring the quality of products. They test hardware and software and search for all the possible defects or discrepancies. These specialists carry out product-related research, write test cases and documentation and pass on all the information to other R&D teams.

In the Teltonika academy, we divide testers into two groups: those who perform manual testing and those who create automated tests.

Manual testing would require you to carry out tests on product functions by hand and simulate usage scenarios. By conducting comprehensive software testing, you will gain knowledge of both the software and its environment because creating all the possible usage cases will be your responsibility during practice.

If you choose writing automated tests, you will get acquainted with the software and its environment as well, as it will help you write quality tests later. The purpose of these tests is to generate such an environment where the testing of devices’ software and hardware would continue even after working hours. We will use Python programming language for creating automated tests. Python is suitable for long-term tests, the aim of which is to check the basic functionality after any changes.

Here, at Teltonika, we use both manual and automated testing, but your internship will start with the acquaintance with our devices. You will learn about how our products work and how to configure them, and then you will use the company’s tools and equipment to carry out manual or automated tests of certain product functions. For example, you may need to test such features as data transfer and Bluetooth functions or product stability and data throughput after changing components. Last but not least, you will get experience in preparing the necessary product documentation.
