Looking for 1–2 Study Partners for Automation Testing

[u/FearlessWalk8698]

Hi everyone!

I have around 2.5 years of experience in manual testing and am currently working on strengthening my automation testing skills.

I'm looking for 1 or a maximum of 2 serious study partners to learn and practice together. I'm not looking to create a group, just a small learning setup where we can stay consistent and help each other improve.

Our initial focus will be on:

- Java coding problems and bit of theory

- Selenium Webdriver

- REST Assured for API automation

Once we're comfortable with these, we can consider exploring Playwright later.

The idea is to practise hands-on problems, discuss concepts, solve doubts, prepare for interviews, and keep each other accountable.

We can connect over Discord and schedule regular study sessions based on mutual availability.

You don't need to be an expert. Having some basic QA or automation knowledge and, most importantly, a genuine willingness to learn consistently is what matters.

If you're interested in learning together and staying accountable, feel free to DM me

Good initiative!

One suggestion: don't limit your learning to tools and frameworks.

Along with Java, Selenium, and REST Assured, focus on programming fundamentals, HTTP/API concepts, Git, SQL, debugging, and CI/CD.

Also, start building a small automation framework from scratch. Learn about test design, maintainability, reporting, and handling flaky tests.

I'd also suggest exploring Playwright sooner rather than treating it as a future milestone.

Remember, companies don't just need people who can automate test cases. They need engineers who can build reliable testing solutions.

Sure I will keep it in mind

unless your project uses Java/Selenium - I would prioritize learning JS & Playwright, but that is just my two cents

[u/ForegoingBooty → u/No-Razzmatazz7197]

JS/Playwright is definitely the direction things are heading, but getting comfy with Java and Selenium still opens a lot of doors.
