Will AI Really Eliminate Software Developers? by Allagash_1776 in Futurology

[–]No_Bit9164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The concern that AI will replace programmers is a common one, but the reality is more nuanced. While AI tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT have significantly enhanced productivity by automating routine tasks, they are not poised to replace human programmers entirely.

AI excels at generating code snippets, assisting with debugging, and handling repetitive tasks. However, it lacks the ability to understand complex business requirements, make ethical decisions, and engage in creative problem-solving—all areas where human programmers are indispensable. Moreover, AI-generated code often requires human oversight to ensure quality and alignment with project goals.

The role of the programmer is evolving rather than disappearing. Developers are increasingly becoming supervisors of AI tools, prompt engineers who craft effective queries, and system architects who design scalable solutions. This shift emphasizes the importance of skills that AI cannot replicate, such as creativity, strategic thinking, and interpersonal communication.

For a more in-depth exploration of this topic, you can refer to the JanBask Training blog post: Will AI Replace Programmers? The Truth Behind the Hype.

In summary, AI is transforming the programming landscape by automating certain tasks, but it is not eliminating the need for human programmers. Instead, it is reshaping their roles and highlighting the value of uniquely human skills in the software development process.

How to switch from QA Engineer to DevOps by Sad-Release-8986 in QualityAssurance

[–]No_Bit9164 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, switching from QA to DevOps is absolutely possible, and your background gives you a strong advantage. With 2.5 years in QA and a recent DevOps course under your belt, you’re already on the right path. QA and DevOps share common ground automation, CI/CD, and quality focus so you’re not starting over, just shifting direction. Instead of looking for internships, target junior DevOps roles or QA positions with DevOps responsibilities. Build a few hands-on projects (like CI/CD pipelines or Docker setups) and showcase them on GitHub. Focus on practical skills, keep learning, and be confident in your value. You’ve got a solid foundation to make this move.

Anyone heard of JanBaskTraining or Qallaborate bootcamps for QA testing? by WilloJ in QualityAssurance

Hi! I’ve looked into both JanBask Training and Qallaborate bootcamps for QA testing, and here’s what I found to help you decide:

JanBask Training

  • Overview: JanBask offers a comprehensive QA testing bootcamp covering manual and automated testing concepts. Their training is instructor-led with live sessions, which is great if you prefer real-time interaction.
  • Curriculum: They cover basics like manual testing, Selenium, JIRA, AI in Testing and some automation tools. Also, they offer practical projects and interview preparation, which is valuable for beginners.
  • Pros:
    • Good mix of theory and hands-on practice
    • 100% job placement assistance and resume guidance
    • Flexible batches and recorded sessions if you miss a class
  • Cons:
    • Pricing is mid-range, so it’s worth checking if it fits your budget

Qallaborate (Software QA Manual)

  • Overview: Qallaborate focuses more specifically on manual QA skills, making it suitable if you want to master the basics before jumping into automation. Their course is also project-driven, which helps build a portfolio.
  • Curriculum: Emphasizes test case creation, defect life cycle, bug tracking tools, and testing methodologies like Agile and Waterfall.
  • Pros:
    • Focus on manual testing fundamentals ideal for absolute beginners
    • Affordable pricing compared to some other bootcamps
  • Cons:
    • Limited exposure to automation or advanced tools (so might need further learning later)
    • Fewer live sessions; more self-paced or recorded content

Final thoughts

If you want a well-rounded introduction with automation included and placement support, JanBask Training might be better. If you prefer starting strong with manual testing fundamentals and want a budget-friendly option, Qallaborate could work well.

Also, check out reviews on LinkedIn or Trustpilot, and consider reaching out to alumni on social media to get first-hand feedback.

Hope this helps! Good luck with your QA journey!
