Online SDET Bootcamp is an acronym for Software Development/Design Engineer in Test. The position refers to an IT professional who happens to be involved, both in the development as well as testing of the software. The role of a SDET can be understood as an intermediate one, between a purely tester role and a purely developer role. SDETs are essentially professionals who are skilled in Software Development as well as Quality Engineering. They not only participate in developing and writing test scripts, but SDET testing also helps in fixing bugs as part of the process. Thus, they help in replacing repetitive manual testing with automation.
