Who Should Read This Book?
This book is primarily tailored for beginners in software testing and existing software testing professionals who want to expand their breadth of knowledge. That said, any software role whose responsibilities overlap with testing, such as an application developer or DevOps engineer, could benefit from the book. In all cases, a fundamental requirement is to possess some coding knowledge, especially in Java, as the book has hands-on exercises in Java and, in some places, JavaScript. Also, if you are a reader who is new to the software industry, I would recommend doing a preliminary read on software development processes such as the Agile and waterfall methodologies before diving into this book.
