It depends on where you want to go from here. Do you feel that you want to architect QA solutions? If so, also focus on understanding how new technologies like IoT, BlockChain, and AI impact testing. These are areas that can completely overwhelm even the most experienced testers.

If you have good programming experience, you can try ML/AI courses. Many testing tools work on AI and ML technology, and basic knowledge of AI/Ml concepts must work on those tools. It helps you use your rich experience in testing with the latest technology and help you score a good package. I know one of my friend who is now getting 25LPA after switching from selenium automation to AI Bots testing using various AI-based testing tools. Also, suppose you feel your programming skills are not that good. In that case, I think you can also approach the product management/business analytics field as being in the testing domain gave you good experience in any business domain. You can give a try to senior BA or product manager role based on your interest.Another field in hype currently is Devops- If you are interested in CI/CD, Docker, Cloud computing, you should go for this field as it also benefits you in getting a good package. read less

Personalised training for your needs.

Testing automation is a niche field, and you can continue to build your skill sets in the same area. Also, higher digitisation and constantly upgrading softwares seem to be a good skill set.

I WILL MAKE SOFTWARE TESTING EASY FOR YOU

I am in the same boat you are. From here, I think we should learn/grow towards CI/CD roles, where we can play the scrum master role; on top of that, DevOps roles always help.

What is the disadvantage of black box testing?
Without clear functional specifications, test cases are difficult to implement. It is difficult to execute the test cases because of complex inputs at different stages of testing. Sometimes, the reason for the test failure cannot be detected.
