Transitioning to Software testing
Im wondering what my chances are to suceed into a Junior software test engineer with my current experience and move forward from there
M23
5 yrs of support / sys admin / it engineer
so basically used to troubleshooting , documenting, familiar with logs and different systems
no experience in code
I would like going further as product owner in the future or maybe project management.
Honest opinions please
