A QA professional transitioning to a DevOps role should emphasize skills in automation tools (like Jenkins, and Ansible), version control (Git), containerization (Docker), and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform). Knowledge of continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, and GCP), and monitoring practices is vital. Understanding collaborative practices, Agile methodologies, and scripting (Python, Bash) are also essential for successful integration into DevOps teams.
