Open in Job ExplorerWork context
ICT integration testers work where separate modules, services or applications have to function together. They prepare integration test plans, build combined test sets, observe interfaces and report failures that only appear when components interact.
Skills and specializations
Core skills include integration test design, module compatibility checks, test data, defect reporting and understanding of system dependencies. Specialisation may involve APIs, embedded systems, release environments, automation or complex enterprise platforms.
Salary context
Salary context depends on product complexity, automation depth, release risk, number of connected systems, responsibility for test planning and whether the tester influences release decisions. Compare roles by technical dependency mapping and defect accountability.
Career paths
Career paths may lead from manual or system testing into integration test lead, test automation, quality engineering, release management or software test architecture. Experience with interfaces and regression risk is useful for broader QA roles.
Good to know
Check whether vacancies name interfaces, modules, applications, test plans, environments and defect workflow. A true integration role should be about relationships between components, not only running isolated functional tests.
