Coding experience is not mandatory, but it is good to work in a DevOps profile. The primary requirement has a good working knowledge with Linux os, at least one scripting (Shell/Python) and some understanding of cloud-related technologies (IaaS/PaaS).

While it is creditable that you are thinking to learn DevOps, which has no connection to what you are currently doing, it would be some disruption. You will need to know the entire automation pipeline and learn the DevOps tools and techniques.If you want to leverage your current experience of testing, Big Data ETL testing is another option. This way, you can claim that its a natural progression, but you would remain in testing stream, the difference is you are in a more lucrative field.Would you need programming for DevOps or Big Data Testing?The answer is yes.In this day and age, you must know a little bit of scripting and programming. There is no harm in learning and attempting.You have everything to gain.Best of Luck read less

3+ decades of work experience with 20 yrs into IT Infrastructure services- both traditional & Cloud

Its a disaster. Testung folks should ideally take up Solution architect, so you can colloborate with Business and customers. DevOps, though is not impossible, is an overkill.
