Frequently Asked Questions
When does the next 1-to-1 training intake start?
Intakes start twice monthly on the 1st and 15th. The next upcoming 1-to-1 intake starts on October 1, 2026 (with secondary intake on October 15, 2026).
What real production projects will I build during the Software Testing & QA Automation lab?
You will build end-to-end production systems using Selenium WebDriver, Java, TestNG, Cucumber BDD, Postman REST API, Maven, Git, starting from architecture blueprints to live staging server deployments.
Are student projects deployed on live cloud servers with public links?
Yes. Every project is committed to your personal public GitHub portfolio and deployed to live staging environments so recruiters can verify your working application.
How do portfolio projects help in clearing technical screening interviews?
Live project links and clean GitHub commit graphs serve as undeniable proof of engineering capability, allowing you to walk interviewers through actual production code during technical discussions.
Student Success Stories
Real feedback from students who completed our 1-to-1 virtual Software Testing Training training.
"I wanted to enter the IT industry through QA. The trainer at CACTS taught me manual test planning and Jira defect tracking, and then we wrote Selenium scripts in Java. The 1-to-1 guidance made coding less scary."
Shraddha G.
QA Engineer, Shivane, Pune"I had manual testing experience but needed Selenium automation skills. The Page Object Model framework and API testing modules in Postman were exactly what I needed. Excellent 1-to-1 mentoring."
Kunal J.
Test Automation Lead, Hinjewadi, Pune"The database testing with SQL and Selenium test execution modules are highly practical. We tested active application modules during the internship phase, which gave me hands-on debugging experience."

How students compile, test, and deploy production software code during the Software Testing & QA Automation track.
4-Stage Software Engineering Pipeline
- Feature Branch Isolation: You create dedicated Git branches for each module component following industry GitFlow standards.
- Live Screen Code Review: Your mentor reviews pull requests line-by-line, pointing out security flaws and performance optimizations.
- Automated Testing: You run unit and integration test suites before merging into staging.
- Staging Deployment: Deploy active builds onto cloud servers or live hosting environments.
