Yes, those are very prone to be replaced sooner or later,because anyone in the team can do manual testing say the developer itself, they will reduce their counts for sure not entire manual testers.
Yes testing and QA Engineer as whole will be redundant in next 1-2 years.Try to move to some different skill
What about ETL testers ?
More manual testers who can integrate with AI the testing process will be taken
Yes manual testing is already obsolete. Seeing manual testers and leads being shown the door.
Manual testers and QA jobs would be the most impacted , telling from what I am seeing. Many experienced manual leads and managers already shown the door.
No QA jobs going forward…
In my team there is no QA developers on rotation do testing and AI is allowed by customer so we can openly use chatgpt plus they are going to bring more tools next which will reduce developer headcount like work can be done by 3 instead of 5
