Career transformation from Web Development to Automation testing

by iamanands . Updated 11 years, 3 months ago

Hi,

I’m working in a local IT firm as Junior software engineer(Web application development) and currently i’m getting trained on web technologies like HTML5 , CSS & Javascript. More specifically AngularJS based SPAs(Single Page Application). My passion is however, into testing, to be specific in Automation testing. Is it possible to get into testing domain after gaining 1 or 2 years of experience from this company?. I will also do the testing part of the developed application, once I get into live projects in this firm, since it is a developing company.

Will I be considered as a fresher if I join tester position which cuts my salary down ?

I can get QTP or Selenium certification from NIIT or any other providers, and get training in the weekends. Will that help actually?

Please guide me.

Regards,

Anand
