Modern Quality Engineering: Automation, DevOps, and AI-Driven Testing

In modern software development, high-quality code must be delivered at rapid speed, making traditional testing methods obsolete. To succeed, quality engineers must embrace automation, continuous integration, and the power of generative AI. This text-based course guides you through the transition from traditional quality assurance to modern quality engineering. You will learn how to shift testing left in the development lifecycle, automate robust test suites, and use artificial intelligence to write better tests faster, ensuring reliable software delivery. What you'll learn: - Understand the core concepts of quality engineering, including the Shift-Left testing methodology and modern quality principles. - Build automated frontend test suites using modern frameworks like Playwright. - Integrate continuous testing into DevOps pipelines to automate feedback loops. - Leverage generative AI tools like ChatGPT to generate test cases, write automation scripts, and optimize test coverage. - Configure automated performance testing processes to identify and resolve system bottlenecks early. - Apply best practices for identifying common development pitfalls and maintaining clean, scalable test code. You will start by mastering foundational quality engineering definitions and modern testing methodologies. From there, you will progress through practical, written walkthroughs covering test automation, DevOps pipeline integration, and AI-assisted test generation. This course is designed for aspiring quality engineers, software testers, and developers looking to modernize their testing skills. No prior experience with DevOps or test automation is required.
