About the Course

Linkskill's Automation Testing Engineer program transforms manual testers and freshers into sought-after QA automation specialists. You'll master the full automation stack: Selenium WebDriver with Java for UI testing, Rest Assured for API automation, Cypress for modern JavaScript apps, and Jenkins/GitHub Actions for CI/CD integration.

Every session is live and code-along. You'll build a reusable Page Object Model framework from scratch, automate real-world web applications, and integrate tests into a CI/CD pipeline — exactly what companies expect in interviews.
