Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)​

An SDET is a developer who instead of working in the product development team, works as part of the test team.

In essence, SDETs are responsible for the following:

– Writing code
– Testing code
– Providing amendments to code based on testing results
– Roles and responsibilities are based on the Agile lifecycle model
– Providing strong analytical, technical, and problem-solving skills alongside a degree of professionalism.   

On the other hand, QA Engineers are testers who do not need to have any programming experience as they usually are not exposed to the code but share other noncoding responsibilitiesLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Coding Bootcamp vs College

There are many considerations to make when choosing whether to learn to code at a coding bootcamp, or by doing a computer science degree at university. Coding bootcamps are around 3 to 6 months long, intensive, teach you very practical, applicable, up-to-date skills, and give you career coaching, but are not usually accredited, so you do not get a qualification. If you attend a coding bootcamp you will need to prove your skills through your portfolio. CS degrees are around 4 years long, cover in-depth theoretical material, teach you established programming practices, and provide you with a degree to show for it, but you will still need to prove your skills in a technical interview. Coding bootcamps cost between $10,000-$20,000 all up front, whereas CS degrees can cost up to $20,000 per semester. TechCircle will cost a student between $7,900-$8,900.

Return on Investment

Whenever you make a purchase whether it’s a car, home, or an educational program, it’s always wise to calculate your ROI. While traditional college graduates are facing unparalleled unemployment rates throughout the nation with no end in sight, most coding graduates secure a job within 3 months of graduation. Since these accelerated learning programs thrive on their job placement rates, it’s equally important to schools that graduates are placed.

Timewise, ROI’s a no-brainer – most coding Bootcamp graduates invest 3-6 months in a program, while college students invest 4 years. But what about the financial investment? The average starting salary of a TechCircle coding Bootcamp graduate is $102,000. A CS degree graduate can expect an average salary of $40k-55K. For a fraction of the time investment, coding Bootcamp graduates will earn more than computer science graduates.

When it comes to ROI, TechCircle coding Bootcamp requires less time, less money and offers more earnings when compared to a CS degree.
