Hello everyone, Need some guidance
I'm currently working as QA 2 having around 3.5 YOE in manual testing. I'm planning to switch in automation role in next 6 months. Currently I'm learning core Java then planning to learn selenium, please add any suggestions that could help me to get into automation role?
Is it a good decision to switch to automation only or should I try for development from there?
Thanks in advance!!
