Junior Software QA Engineers are entry-level professionals responsible for ensuring the quality of software products through manual or automated testing. They work closely with development teams to identify bugs, report issues, and verify that software meets specified requirements. Their tasks often include writing test cases, executing test plans, and documenting results.
