Okay, I see lot of "experts" in the comment section are writing about QA and apparently its a "dead end". It is not QA that's a dead end, its the learning ability of people in these jobs that is dead. QA people often 'settle' in one profile and don't upskill themselves which is the demand of IT industry as whole. Tell me this, If a guy with QA - Automation experience, upskills himself with Cloud knowledge/certifications, has knowledge on how CI/CD pipelines work, wont he find a job any scrum team around the whole world? Sure ultimately that person might have to move to some other role as and when the industry demands that, but you see the point am trying to make? One cannot have only Selenium and Appium on their C.V. and expect that to suffice for an entire career, the entire world is moving towards to cloud. As a starting point QA is great for people who don't want to get into Dev jobs or Sys Admin roles.

I really appreciate your efforts on this topic. I would love to see more deep on this topic, it shows the different path available for tester if they wanted to learn.

Boss your enthusiasm rubs on me. Thanks for the inspiration. Good luck on your ventures

[techtalkbyravindra]

I guess I'm in the 3rd point that you mentioned. From QA, I did a basic cloud certification and now got it into cloud migration testing, and trying to push myself into working with the cloud architect (along with the pre-sales) team.

Very good insight & view on QA to Cloud

[yskbazi]

You took wise decision. Qa automation need great skills. In fact it's difficult than development. They have to learn new tool after every couple of years. Inspite of all efforts it doesn't give a long and good career. In india out of every 100 people laid off 50 are from qa. All qa guys should realise this and learn either cloud or ERP or crms. Don't try to ride a dead horse. Qa gives a job not a career.

Hi Thanks for creating good and precise content. I am a QA in US healthcare with 12 years experience (EDI, Facets, SIT, UAT). Mostly its manual but with very good knowledge of domain. I am actually confused to go for cloud or something like API testing, selenium etc.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi, please guide me on the below query.

Im an automation engineer (3.5+ Selenium + java, C# + Jenkins).
For my career growth should i continue as Automation developer or move to DevOps? If yes then what could be the ideal experience to switch into DevOps?
Will staying in Automation will be as same as DevOps in terms of profitability?

Thank-you in Advance 😊

How long did you work with the operation team in your company before applied for your first DevOps job? And much raise should we expect? Let’s say the current QA salary is $100k
