What is QA?
Quality Assurance (QA) Engineers have one of the most important jobs in tech. It doesn't require coding, technical knowledge, or years of experience.
QA Engineers test software to catch bugs, and work with software engineers to fix them. Their job is about breaking software and documenting the results. It's a lot like technical writing, but simpler and more engaging.
An entry-level job in QA can lead to a rewarding career in tech. QA jobs require a basic knowledge of the tools and procedures, which can be acquired part-time through a bootcamp in just a few months.
Average salaries for junior positions are about $68,000 per year. Because QA Engineers are so embedded in the software development process, they quickly learn the ropes and grow into better-paying roles.

The tutors were amazing, way better than any tutor that I ever had in college or even the academy.
When I first opened the chapter, I had no idea what it was. I could not understand what they were teaching, but at the end, I felt so confident. When I submitted my project, I felt like I was an expert.

Learning something new can be stressful, but it was probably one of the least stressful learning experiences I've ever had.
When I was doing projects, I found that I liked to break software and provide feedback. So basically, when I learned that doing that could be a job, I was all about it.

Their curriculum is thoughtfully designed, blending theory with hands-on projects that prepare you for real-world scenarios. The instructors are knowledgeable and incredibly supportive, always ready to guide you through challenges.
This sprint explores the role of a Software Tester and how they fit into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). It also takes a detailed look at the different types of testing before introducing you to exploratory testing. You’ll then finish the sprint by completing your very first testing project!
This sprint covers the analysis and decomposition of product requirements while identifying gray areas. It then looks at writing reports on test results, finding errors in web services, and understanding their structure. You'll use various techniques to design and optimize your tests before putting your knowledge to use in your second project by creating your own test documentation.
This module covers the basics of web application structure, including client-server architecture, front-end, back-end, URL, and HTTP. You'll compile a checklist of tests for the interface elements and learn how to work with industry tools such as Figma, DevTools, and Charles. At the end of the module, you will test a new routing interface.
This sprint covers how to test APIs using Postman. You’ll learn everything you need in order to understand APIs, such as REST architecture, JSON, and the HTTP request and response structure. As usual, there will be a project at the end.
This sprint is all about databases. You’ll study the console while learning how to work with tables and write SQL queries.
This sprint is all about mobile applications. Here you’ll learn how to use the Android Studio emulator, practice setting logs, and become familiar with the intricacies of testing on a real device.
This sprint introduces you to one of the most important programming languages in the world: Python. You’ll learn the basics of the language and how to apply it to testing.
This sprint teaches you how to use Python to automate a web browser. You’ll build on the previous chapter and learn about a commonly-used testing tool called Selenium.
The final project gives you the chance to put all of your learning into practice as you test a mobile app, a web app, and an API. You’ll design and perform tests, then submit bug reports with your findings.
Provide real solutions to real companies. These projects involve communicating with clients to understand their requirements and providing them with bug reports. You’ll play a vital role in helping them meet the standards that their customers expect.
This is a course devoted to preparing for life after TripleTen. During this course, you’ll learn how to create a resume, a LinkedIn profile, and a GitHub account, along with improving networking and interview skills.
Once you've graduated, we'll spend time with you to help you find a job. Typically, this is a 3-4 month process during which we provide mock interviews, review your career documents, and give you 1:1 career coaching.*

Quality Assurance Engineers have the reputation of enjoying the easiest tech careers. But they are still pivotal members of any team, even in QA Engineer internships. As a QA Engineer, you’ll catch bugs and write simple scripts. You’ll spend your time testing software, breaking software, and finding software errors as you earn a good QA engineer salary. In addition, our part-time coding bootcamp will teach you the basics of coding applications. That means your tasks might involve some light programming. Still, you can get this tech job without learning to code.
A lot of people come to our online coding bootcamps wondering how to get a tech job with no experience. Our simple answer is that our part-time coding courses will give you experience. A key pillar of all of our online coding courses is our externships. With externships, you’re put into real-life tech situations so that when you finish our QA Engineer course or any of our other programs, you graduate with on-the-job know-how. Further, QA Engineers who go through our Quality Assurance Engineer bootcamp don’t actually need to know how to code. Our QA Engineer bootcamp teaches you the specific knowledge and skills that will make you more than ready to start your tech career journey.
