QA & Software Testing jobs

Salary examples in this guide are India-only benchmarks; actual offers vary by country and employer. QA engineers test software before and after release. Work includes writing test cases, manual regression testing, API testing, bug reports and, in many teams, automation with Selenium, Playwright or Cypress. Employers look for careful observation, clear writing and the ability to reproduce a bug. Salaries range from ₹20,000 to ₹50,000 per month, with automation skills pushing pay higher. Ask whether the role is manual-only or includes automation, and how releases and on-call testing are scheduled.
