Al-enabled UI Job Assist Tool.
2. Test read/write REST APIs and Java microservices used to exchange
data between the core UI system and the Job Assist Tool.
3. Perform Model Context Protocol (MCP) validation, including
server/client interactions, tool invocation, request/response handling,
and error conditions.
4. Validate business rules and data-integrity controls designed to prevent
corrupt or unapproved Al-generated data from being written back to the
UI system.
5. Execute positive, negative, boundary, regression, and end-to-end
tests across APIs, microservices, MCP components, and Al
integrations.
6. Create and maintain test cases, test data, traceability, defect
documentation, and test execution results.

and persistence of data.

vendor technical teams, and business SMEs to investigate defects and
clarify expected behavior.
10. Support performance and scalability testing for workloads associated
with approximately 1,500 concurrent users and document-heavy
processing.
11. Validate security-sensitive integration behavior in a regulated UI
environment and support knowledge transfer to State staff.
