QA Or Test Engineer’s Pay scale

Test Engineer Pay scale

Salary of a Software Tester varies from company to company, but still there is a substantial salary gap between Developers and Testers. I would not like to comment about the scenario for any other company but as far as India is concerned this has always been the trend. Personally speaking when I started my career as a Software Tester the initial salary being offered to me was only Rs.8000 per month. Even now, though I am having 2.6 years of experience in Software Testing Industry, I have to strive hard to earn a salary as per my expectation or Industry standards.
The competition is also increasing in the field, thus yielding Recruiters with more and more option to hire from the large pool of skilled resources. While most of the Freshers look for an early start to their career while keeping the market competition in mind, they get easily convinced to work at lower pay scale.
Adding to owes is a general mindset that I have come through “If I am not a good at development then and I should get into testing”.
               Dear peoples I would like to frankly tell you one thing that if you are here in Software Testing Industry just because you were not good at development or whatever else, then you are surely not going to succeed in Software Testing Industry. It’s not a sarcasm but a bitter reality, as our Industry is changing at a rapid rate and automation is a need. So, basically you need to be having adequate knowledge of programming skills along with an bend towards adapting to new technologies. This inability to adapt and grow according to the changing market is also one of the major reason for low pay standards in Software Testing Industry.
                 In this scenario if you have got a good start to your career in Software Testing Industry then it’s only up-to you to shape your career in a fruitful way.
So it’s about my personal experience. Let us have a look at salaries being offered by different organizations to my some of my friends:
1)  Working with XXX(Pune), he is having an experience of more than 2 years.
Current Designation : QA
Current Salary : Approximately Rs. 3.6 LPA  ( Obviously he is earning more than me J)
2)    Working with XXXXX (Nagpur), he is having an experience of more than 6 years.
Current Designation : Module Lead
Current Salary : Approximately Rs. 6.25 LPA
3)     Working with XXX  Solutions(Mumbai), he is having an experience of more than 1.5 years.
Current Designation : Test Engineer
Current Salary : Approximately Rs. 3.0 LPA
4)   Working with XXX (Pune), he is having an experience of more than 1.6 years.
Current Designation : Automation Test Engineer
Current Salary : Approximately Rs. 3.5 LPA
So friends here I conclude, competition is tough but growth is in your hands, the figures above depict the same. So All The Best, stay strong…. :)
