What Will You Learn?

• Manual Testing Fundamentals: The foundation of quality assurance. Software Development Life Cycle, testing types, test planning, writing effective test cases, bug life cycle management, and STLC — the professional framework that QA teams operate within globally.
• Selenium WebDriver Automation: Automate what humans test manually. Browser automation with Selenium WebDriver, element locator strategies, explicit and implicit waits, the Page Object Model design pattern, and cross-browser testing — the most widely used automation framework in the industry.
• Playwright — Modern UI Automation: The next-generation automation framework from Microsoft. Cross-browser testing, parallel execution, auto-waiting, and network interception — the tool that is rapidly becoming the new standard for web automation.
• Python & Java for Test Scripting: Write the code that tests the code. Object-oriented programming for test frameworks, scripting reusable test utilities, and building maintainable test suites in both Python and Java — the two most common languages in QA engineering.
• Postman & REST API Testing: Test what the user never sees. API endpoint testing, request construction, response validation, test collections, environment management, and Newman for CI runner integration — because backend bugs are invisible until they break everything.
• JIRA & Defect Management: Communicate defects professionally. Writing effective bug reports in JIRA, defect lifecycle management, sprint tracking, test coverage reporting, and the workflow that development teams actually use every day.
• TestNG & JUnit Test Frameworks: Structure your automation professionally. Test annotations, assertion libraries, parameterised testing, test suites, parallel execution, and HTML reporting — the framework layer that makes automated tests maintainable.
• Jenkins & CI/CD Pipeline Testing: Make quality continuous. Integrate automated tests into Jenkins pipelines, configure GitHub Actions triggers, run tests on every code commit, and produce automated test reports — the DevOps integration that modern QA engineers own.
• Mobile Testing with Appium: Test the apps on every device. Appium for native and hybrid Android app automation, device farm testing, mobile-specific test strategies, and the unique challenges of mobile quality assurance.
• Performance Testing: JMeter & K6: Test the breaking point. Load testing, stress testing, spike testing, and endurance testing using JMeter and K6 — finding the performance issues before users find them in production.
• Security Testing: OWASP Basics: Add security awareness to your QA skills. OWASP Top 10 vulnerability awareness, basic security testing approaches, OWASP ZAP for automated scanning, and the security test cases that protect users and companies.
• Agile QA & Scrum Methodology: Work in the modern development environment. Scrum ceremonies for QA engineers, sprint testing strategies, BDD (Behaviour-Driven Development), and the collaboration model that modern software teams use.
