They are adopting different practices to deliver bug free projects to match up with increasing demand in the industry.Software testing has become crucial after the advent of DevOps and Agile where organizations need to deliver the release or products in few hours or in day. In recent times, IT industry, however, has transformed from Manual to Automation Testing but still industry is expecting people with multiple skills. Its equally applicable to Software testers. Industry want a mix of testing and development skill set with strong engineering mindset.

Top companies are not only looking for vanilla testing practices but test professionals who have deep understanding and experience in JUnit, TestNG, Apache Maven, Git, Jenkins, CI/CD, Performance testing tools, understanding of applications architecture, so they can write white box Test cases too.
