There is an opinion that developers of automated test systems require high qualification in the field of software development and a solid knowledge base. Usually there are not many such people in the testing team. But you can start working on high-quality test automation, even without such experience. The report will discuss:

• recruiting for a test automation training program;
• primary threshold for entry into recruits;
• curriculum development;
• intermediate control and testing;
• starting work on real projects;
• pitfalls and mistakes that can be made.

The use of this knowledge on their own experience allowed the company to obtain a high level of project coverage with tests and achieve results when each of the team develops and maintains autotests, and also automates new projects.
