Hi Raghav, I'm trying to switch my present career from support associate to Software tester but I have no idea how to do that, One of my office colleagues from the product team recommended your video so here I am asking for your advice with software testing and from where I should start.
Thanks in advance

Hello sir....Should I start learning QA or should i learn a programming language first then learn QA??

Hi Raghav, I have 7 year experience in Manual testing, is Scrum master certification good for my profile. Or development experience is required to become scrum master.

Thanks a lot respected sir.

Hi Raghav I’m a performance test engineer mostly Jmeter with 4 years of experience but now I’m feeling kinda stucked 😢
During my 4 year i have also done 2 selenium projects which are basic level. During my 4 year i continued studying java mostly from last 1.5year and now I’m good at things like advance java with jsp servlet and springboot currently in free time I’m studying DSA Algorithms
Can you please advice me whether switching to java backend will be a wise choice for me or not or please suggest me any alternate career path according to my skill sets
I’m so stuck with jmeter performance testing and basically I’m doing same tasks again and again but for different clients as I’m working in a service based company
Just to add one more point I’m completely out of touch with manual testing concepts basically i haven’t worked on anything like test case creation, test plan creation or any other things which come under manual testing
In my 4 years i have only done performance testing only with 2 basic automation projects

Any advice will be appreciated
Thanks 😊

Hi Raghav what will be the designation for QA Fresher in beginning lot of companies giving different kind of designation's ?

How can a Functional Tester (10+ years), who recently moved to a Lead Role, handle an Automation Team [about 8-10 Automation Testers (all having less than 2 years of experience)], when he / she doesn't have any prior automation hands-on experience ?

Hi Raghav.. Great video fist of all. So thanks for putting it togeher. I am an IT Engineer with MBA Marketing degree however at present I am working as QA (manual & integration testing mostly). I am eager to change my career track and grow however highly confused which one should I take and will need your help to shape my career. I should get into Automation however I dont have any dev experience and not very confident in that.. So now what I have to select are the folowing 1. BA 2. DevOps Engineer (Not sure how feasible this ma be) and lastly Solutions Architect. I have done a course on DevOps and spent sometime learning AWS but no breaks through so far. I am now planning to learn the Business Analysis and later grow in to SA. Kindly suggest with the experience I have what would be a smooth transition and provide your recommendations. Just to add I dont want to be manager or lead as my peoples management skills are not too great.Thanks in advance.

Nice explanation of roles. I am noticing over last 3 years at least, that many companies are merging responsibilities at "Test Engineer" level. A person designated as "QA Engineer" or "Test Engineer" or "Test Automation Engineer" is expected to also undertake "Test Lead" roles on top of a "Test Analyst" duties. This way they are eliminating a separate "Lead" role and also saving cost. The next leap from there will be as a "Test Manager" or a "Project Manager".

Sir please gimme ur blog site name

Thank you Raghav! I have a question - how is the career as test analyst ? Is it better than SDET in terms of growth and opportunities ?

Hi Raghav, I'm a senior test engineer ISTQB certified tester - manual side mostly. I want to move to management side. Can I go ahead n take CSM certification?!

Hi Raghav, I want to move to management side, could you tell how to do the same or make a video on it on how to apply for this position in a new company please.

Hi Raghav...Almost every companies wants QA to do both manual+automation...am into it since 8 years...selenium, cucumber BDD etc....work life balance is very low and moreover automation feels very boring after sometime...although not much work...but automating some complex workflow and cracking head for logic makes a morning 9am to night 10.30pm job.....any alternatives to this??

Hi Ragahv, perfectly explained. Could explain us on test tools and knowledge that is / will be in demand with Emerging Technologies like: Microservices, Kafka-Eventstreams and so on.

To take a fututre protected Testing career for a long run on Technical grounds.
