It’s possible. I was in QA for a few years but joined a company that was going to get rid of their QA team and transition them to developers. I was lucky. But I also have an MIS degree and took computer science (learned OOP and C++ and Java), took some DB fundamentals, networking, etc.) so that helped me. Of about 30 QA analysts, there are only 3 that stayed with the company and became developers, and I am on of them. We mainly do backend but are technically full stack developers. It helped that I started doing test automation and coding in my QA role. I would recommend everything stated in this video.
I would like to think that you benefited greatly from this opportunity, well done!! I am now also finding myself transitioning from QA to Dev. I do have test automation experience, I studied programming but ended up in testing due to lack of employment opportunities in my country where I am from (South Africa). I now have over 10 years QA experience but it's no longer bringing fulfillment in my life. I have expressed my interest for development with my current employer and they have agreed to me transitioning, so now I am finding myself doing dev tasks amidst my already crazy busy QA schedule and it is very much fulfilling to solve coding problems 💪and hopefully if all goes well, by September 2024 I will be a Dev. So glad to have read about your story it inspires me even more 🙌
I am having total 12.5 years of experience in TCS and 5 relevant experience in QA manual testing. Can I go for Master QA automation program? If yes please let me know the fee structure
I had worked as a T E in company for 2 years and I want to switch from Testing to developing so they ll consider 2 year experience candidate in developing or they'll consider fresher in developing
I was almost 3 years experienced QA Engineer and trying to switch to dev for months recently, there were ups and downs for me and left my QA job and for almost 9 months I'm unemployed trying to land a job in backend development by trying to improve myself through learning, hands-on practices etc. And I've stated that in my CV that I'm freelancing in this unemployed process even though I'm not. Is that going to be a problem? Or ok to a bit putting the attention off the unployment status (of course I need to back it up..)
Im working as QA automation from past 2.3 years, Now I'm thinking to switch to developer role. is this good decision? Will i get chance ? Will i get more salary?
Yes definitely, we have lot of our learners have made similar transitions. You can drop an email to ping@criodo.com and we can share few more details or go to crio.do and register for free trial
Hi sir , currently I'm working as support engineer but i want to make a switch to a developer jobs , pls guide me for the switch. I'm having experience on core java and I'm having less than 1 yr exp.
The journey suggest here almost applies for your role as well. Start by picking up coding and start working on projects. You should be able to crack some good offers soon. Feel free to look at job guarantee curriculum offered at Crio as well!
It's actually a very straightforward path as you are already coding as a part of your day to day job as SDET. Why don't you take our free trial at Crio.do?
I am having 3.5 years exp as a test engineer and want to switch to development. Anywhere I apply they either want experience or want a fresher newly graduated. Is it possible to get a good company as a developer ?
I’m putting this comment as I’m struck rn….I’m into QA for about a year and a half now and I’m not much interested in continuing the same…I’m thinking of moving my career to either design/dev…But I’m not sure which to choose…. If anyone have a good idea on this, pls pitch in😊…
I have 12 Years of work experience in QA (ETL and reporting) , Is it possible to switch now as an ETL developer? If yes, how does it start? I'm also a QAlead in my current company.
As mentioned in the video, it may not be a straight forward path. If you hustle around a bit, possible to get into some dev role. Other way is QA automation ofcourse
I have 10years of exp in QA and now in a transition phase to UI development using Vue js ? Confused if it is the right choice or not ...? Need help and guidance
You don't necessarily have to do that. If you are writing code in your job, you can definitely highlight that. In 5 min, experienced interviewers can see through fake experience.
(I am assuming you are not talking about Manual testers..) Well it depends upon how you work.. If you can be replaced by any Tom Dick and Harry you are doing it wrong.. If dev is earning 5x-10x more than QA.. then QA is doing lot of things wrong and dev is doing a lot of things right.. Sorry but thankfully I know a lot of QA's in my circle who earn more than Dev's with same experience level.. I may not be earning more than Dev's but at par.. Lot depends upon how and where you crack the interview.. negotiation skills, finally your QA skills..
@@lankaanuroop3842 it's not just 1 skill.. 1 of my junior has excellent technical skills excellent bug finding skills.. but where he lacks is thinking from a helicopter view.. team work. You need to be a complete package.. He k even for Dev's it is the same.. Only being good at coding is not something that will make you great.. Your vision your thinking your mindset and your efforts. Also say no attitude.. whatever it is give it a shot.. Lot of times I had to do few things without prior experience.. Example load testing and using different tools, I spend extra hours just out of curiosity and willingness to learn.. You also need to know what's happening around..when to use and not use certain tools even when you do not have experience with it.. basically it's not 1 thing which you need to learn and it's done.. be prepared to learn your entire career.. make sure your market value is more not just your current company value.. If something happens to the current company you will not stand anywhere.. If you stop learning high chances of you having a short career or having an average below average package..

Insightful video 🌟
7.7 years exp. And I was kind of super confused so joined QA automation track of crio. So far great
qa or full stack which is better
@@mahithach8495 your question is so wrong QA requires absolutely different skills from fullstack
What is the fee structure ?

Hi sir, One question. All the details are available in free of cost then why would in need to choose this course?
I was almost 3 years experienced QA Engineer and trying to switch to dev for months recently, there were ups and downs for me and left my QA job and for almost 9 months I'm unemployed trying to land a job in backend development by trying to improve myself through learning, hands-on practices etc. And I've stated that in my CV that I'm freelancing in this unemployed process even though I'm not.

Hello sir, Is it possible to make a trasition with 4 years of experience from non technical background?
Hey Subho, we've got you covered in our latest and 4th video in this series. Go check it out :)
Can I put my title as Dev when my exp is QA? I have only 1 and half year exp
You don't necessarily have to do that. If you are writing code in your job, you can definitely highlight that. In 5 min, experienced interviewers can see through fake experience.
Good time
Dev are paid 5X - 10X than QA, QA can be replaced easily by any tom, dick and harry. So better work as dev than QA
(I am assuming you are not talking about Manual testers..)
Well it depends upon how you work..
If you can be replaced by any Tom Dick and Harry you are doing it wrong..
If dev is earning 5x-10x more than QA.. then QA is doing lot of things wrong and dev is doing a lot of things right..
