On a day to day basis I look at tickets on Jira (ticket board) and I test them accordingly this could either be a manual or automation test which I complete. Then I update the ticket with the correct information so the team is able to see the if the ticket has passed or failed.
I have learnt many new skills; i will list them below: -Cresting real time spreadsheets -Editing test data -Creating Test Data -Creating Manual Scripts -Creating Automation scripts -Executing both Manual and Automation scripts These are covered around 6 months into the apprenticeship however I found the most difficult one was the the automation testing.
I enjoyed it very much the experience is amazing and there is a sense of value and independence within the team. All apprentices have weekly meeting with their managers to discuss the apprenticeship and how the apprentice thinks it is going. This is helpful as it builds a strong relationship of understanding between the manger and the apprentice. Managers are very open and enjoy communicating with all members of the team.

There is a lot of support from the the employer this mainly is a team effort and it allows everyone to get along with each other and build relationships. If the apprentice is struggling then the employer sets a strategy to try and help the apprentice in any way possible.
I receive good support from the training provider but wish there was more when it comes to vendor examinations.
