As a Golang Platform team, the Test Platform team provides common libraries and tools used by QA engineers in product teams. These tools include parts of the common CI pipeline for integration and e2e testing, libraries for generating tests, mocks, and libraries for integration with the test reporting system.

As in the rest of the backend teams, Test Engineers write code in Golang to be as close as possible to backenders.

The Test platform not only implements common libraries for testing but also creates and supports infrastructure for test engineering like test reporting systems.
