Собеседование на ручного тестировщика (Middle QA) | Выпуск 14

A full mock interview for a Middle-level QA position: a candidate with four years of experience answers questions on APIs, automation, and microservices, and finally walks through a practical task on a real login screen. One hour of live QA interview: theory on REST and HTTP methods, idempotency, response codes, contract verification and regression, pagination testing, microservices and message brokers, the Page Object pattern, working with mocks and environments, and AI in testing. The final session is practical: what checks to set on the login page and what to check on the backend. Useful for those preparing for a Middle-level QA interview and want to see the real deal firsthand. 🎯 Sign up for a mock interview with a school mentor: https://forms.yandex.ru/cloud/69b4a6f...
