POSITION: Software Tester
Job Summary:
Software quality is an important competitive advantage in our market, one that has a major impact on all areas of our organization. An effective Quality Assurance (QA) process will identify and correct a software problem internally, before it can impact our clients. This protects the enviable reputation of our product which makes it easier for our sales force to sell to potential customers. Catching bugs early also reduces our support costs, allowing our support team to handle a larger number of clients. Finally, detecting these flaws early gives our development team adequate time to study and correct a problem in a controlled environment. Once a client site has been impacted, the urgency of getting a site running again can lead to less than optimal solutions to a problem.
The primary role of the Software Tester position is to provide functional and technical testing of the clinical management systems and services that Practice Solutions Software provides to its clients. To successfully meet the challenges of this role, the incumbent will utilize their understanding of basic testing methodologies, and must possess, or be willing to develop, a comprehensive knowledge of how our products are used by physicians as they practice medicine, and by support staff as they manage the medical office. The incumbent must be able to take the viewpoint of the client, asking not what a user should do, but rather what a user could conceivably do. Tact and diplomacy are crucial to maintaining co-operative relations between the key stake-holders in the quality management process. The incumbent must be at ease communicating with both technical (developers) and non-technical (customers, management) people, and must be able to communicate effectively verbally and in writing. The Software Tester will be required to write and execute test scenarios and test cases, and then summarize the results of those tests for the development team.
This position does not include supervisory responsibilities.
Specific Responsibilities:
" Implement and maintain a comprehensive test laboratory
" Provide support for test database environments within PSS
" Conduct functional testing of the clinical management software
" Write, execute and document test scenarios and test plans
" Collaborate with support personnel to replicate problems reported from the field
" Track issues as they are identified, corrected, re-tested and released
" Liaise with external agencies (provincial ministries etc.) as required
" Assist in developing training materials and building interactive training modules
" Document new features as they are released
" Perform other related duties as directed by the QA Supervisor
Knowledge:
Education/Training
" Community college diploma in computer technology or equivalent post-secondary education
" Knowledge of Windows and/or Mac OSX is required
" Working knowledge of databases is beneficial
Experience
" 3-5 years of proven experience in a QA role with a good understanding of basic testing methodology and the development life cycle along with experience in automated test tools
" Demonstrated proficiency in the use of a wide range of computer software, hardware and networking
" Experience testing enterprise level applications is desirable and work with healthcare applications is preferred
Qualification
" Excellent analytical skills with the ability to plan, prioritize and work with minimum supervision
" Superior communication skills and exceptionally detail oriented
" Strong interpersonal skills to deal effectively with and understand the client community
" A professional and positive attitude with a willingness to learn
" Demonstrated initiative and adaptive to change
" Passionate about a career in QA

" Bilingualism (for positions in Ottawa and East)
COMPLEXITY:
PSS Inc. currently provides three software products (billing, appointments and EMR) on either a Mac or PC platform to single and/or multiple doctors. The complexity of the role is a function of the product and client application combined with the expertise of the Application Support Specialist.
Trainees apply learned skills and knowledge to routine tasks with a focus on learning. They do not make decisions and work under close supervision.
Junior Application Support Specialists apply learned skills and knowledge to semi-routine tasks using established practices and procedures while they continue to learn. They make decisions and exercise judgment within clearly established procedures and practices while consulting with others as necessary.
Intermediate Application Support Specialists are considered fully qualified applying learned skills and knowledge. They make decisions and exercise judgment independently within defined parameters and alter their approach or recommend procedural changes in order to accomplish results. Working under general supervision they seek guidance only as needed and their output is generally sound. They may receive feedback for ongoing learning.
Senior Application Support Specialists (title recognized) have advanced knowledge and skills that are utilized in complex projects. They have full autonomy and versatility to deliver their accountabilities and make decisions requiring analysis and interpretation. Seniors modify their approach and procedure to accommodate client needs, work under minimal supervision and seek guidance only on highly specialized or sensitive issues. Their output is trusted and rarely reviewed.
Support issues are escalated from the Trainee level through to the Manager.
CONSEQUENCE OF ERROR:
Impact of errors on training costs and client relationships is moderate.
INGENUITY AND JUDGEMENT:
Creativity and resourcefulness are required at the intermediate and senior levels where issues need to be analyzed and interpreted with recommendations and actions taken to maintain client satisfaction.

MENTAL EFFORT:
This position requires concentrated mental and visual attention to be sustained for long periods of time while providing help desk support and/or on-site training and support.
PHYSICAL EFFORT:
This position requires moderate physical effort with the installation of hardware.
WORKING CONDITIONS:
When providing help desk support the work is done in an office environment with agreeable conditions.
Working conditions vary for on-site support and training as this is dependent on the client's work environment. Doctor's offices vary from small cramped quarters to large clinic settings.
Considerable travel is required for this position and will vary depending on the geographic location of both the Application Support Specialist and the client.
