  • Time Machine Audits: Perform multiple daily checks at set time points across at least three different games, varying user profiles, and on minimum version devices. These checks must be synchronized with monetization changes.
  • Cross-Team Communication: Regularly communicate known bugs to the team and liaise with related departments like monetization. Establish and maintain a dedicated QA-Ops communication channel to track all known issues.
  • Release Notes Review: Thoroughly review and validate release notes for accuracy and completeness.
  • Event and Live Ops QA: Conduct daily validations of current and future events, assess the impact of new game versions on existing live operations, and check for feature changes and adjustments in bundles, formulas, and metrics.
  • Collaboration with Poland QA Team: Work closely with the QA team in Poland to coordinate ongoing quality assurance efforts across all platforms.
