Answer 6

For a helpful answer you need to specify the area in which you are / want to be a test automation engineer.

What kind of applications are you testing?
FE / BE? Web? SAP? APIs? There are thousands of possible flavours...
Which domain? Automotive, Aircraft and medical have quite different requirements than most others...

Answer 7

Thank you Sandra
I work for a Finance Company and I have tested FE/Web and and used sometimes Soap Ui

Answer 8

Finance, perfect, me too. For FE and Web you primarily need Java (e.g. for implementing selenium tests), JS and Python. You'll always need some SQL / noSQL knowledge, especially in finance sector due to tons of data to test and analyze. Python is useful for data analytics as well. R is a supercool language for QA topics in finance and provides many testing libraries and features. And if you are in touch with some SAP topics I recommend to take a look at the testing courses on openSAP.

Summary: Start dev basics with Java or JS, continue soon with either Python or R. Data science spread in where you are able to.

Software testing is that the never-ending sector in IT. To deliver quality software products, you would like software testing at development, release, and acceptance levels. The scope of software testing is increasing as per the demand within the market and also thanks to the latest revolution in the IT sector. The existence of massive data, IoT, AI, or cloud has made software testing more significant. The testing industry has now become so competitive and this competition has evolved new paradigms within the same.
Software testing has now widened its scope and that I have mentioned some important testing techniques which are being globally used.

In the coming future where AI technologies are taking control over the application, one should be equipped with the below testing tools:

Test design and analysis skills
Performance and security testing
Virtualization of the test environment
AI-based automated testing
Complex scenario designing
