No prior experience is required. The Free Foundation section teaches software testing fundamentals, Java programming for testers, and SQL from scratch, so IT graduates, manual testers, and career switchers can start comfortably before advancing to the job-ready automation program.

Manual testing means executing test cases by hand to find defects, while automation testing uses code and tools like Selenium to run tests automatically, faster, and more reliably at scale. This course starts with manual testing foundations and then teaches you to automate web and API tests, build frameworks, and run them in CI/CD pipelines.

You will work with Selenium WebDriver, Java, TestNG, Maven, Cucumber (BDD), the Page Object Model, Rest Assured and Postman for API testing, SQL for database testing, Git and GitHub, and Jenkins and Docker for CI/CD, plus an overview of modern tools like Playwright, Cypress, and Appium.

Yes. The 60–65 hour program is designed so a candidate who completes it is immediately employable as a QA Automation Engineer, SDET, or Test Automation Engineer. It ends with an end-to-end automation framework capstone project, portfolio building, resume optimization, interview preparation, and mock interviews.

You build hands-on projects throughout, including automated Selenium test scripts, a TestNG suite, a complete Page Object Model automation framework, a data-driven and BDD Cucumber test suite, an API test suite with Rest Assured, and an end-to-end automation framework running in a CI/CD pipeline for your portfolio.

The complete course is 60–65 hours, delivered fully online through live instructor-led sessions. It is split into a 15-hour Free Foundation and a 45–50 hour paid Job-Ready Program.
