QA Editorial Team
SoftwareTestPilot is a QA career platform. Our guides cover Selenium, Playwright, API testing and interview preparation, written to help testers find jobs and prepare for interviews.
Editorial team
Authors & reviewers
SoftwareTestPilot is written by working QA engineers, not content mills. Every guide is authored by a practicing tester and reviewed for technical accuracy before it's published. Read our editorial policy for how we source, fact-check, and update content.
Reviewer
Priyanka G.
Senior QA Reviewer
Priyanka is a senior QA engineer who technically reviews every guide on SoftwareTestPilot for accuracy, up-to-date framework versions, and real-world CI/CD applicability. She has 9+ years across Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, and Postman in fintech and e-commerce QA teams.
Our editorial standards
We publish because we've shipped, broken, and fixed the same test frameworks you're debugging today. Every article follows four rules that keep it honest and useful — not SEO filler.
First-hand experience
Every guide is written by a QA engineer who has actually shipped that tool, framework, or interview loop in production — not paraphrased from vendor docs.
Technical review
Every technical article is reviewed by a senior QA engineer or SDET before publication. Code samples are executed against the current stable version, not copy-pasted from Stack Overflow.
Living content
We restamp Last Updated the moment a syllabus, tool version, or salary band changes. Deprecated advice is rewritten in place, never left to rot.
Reader-first
No affiliate padding, no vendor-sponsored takedowns. If we recommend Playwright over Cypress for a specific job, that’s our honest field call — not a paid placement.
How this site is written and reviewed
SoftwareTestPilot is a small independent publication, not a large newsroom. The library is written by the named authors above, working from their own production testing experience, from first-party data we collect (live job postings in our Jobs Radar, our own tool test runs) and from official vendor documentation. Drafting and research are AI-assisted; structure, technical claims, code samples and final sign-off are human. Technical review is handled in-house by a senior QA engineer; where an article has been formally reviewed, the reviewer is named on that article. Career stories written in the first person are composites drawn from reader interviews and community threads, and each one carries a sourcing note above the article body.

Frequently asked — editorial team
1.Who writes SoftwareTestPilot articles?
A small team of working QA engineers — the authors listed on this page. Every article carries a named byline and links back to that author's bio here. We are an independent publication, so the same handful of people write and review the whole library rather than a rotating pool of freelancers.
2.Are your guides reviewed for accuracy?
Yes. Every technical article is reviewed by a senior QA engineer before publication. We validate code samples against the current stable release of each tool (Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Postman, JMeter, k6) and re-run them when a major version ships.
3.How often is content updated?
We restamp Last Updated whenever the underlying tool, salary band, or interview format shifts — typically 60–120 days for evergreen guides and immediately for breaking changes like Selenium 4.28, Playwright 1.50, or a new ISTQB syllabus revision.
4.Do you accept guest posts?
Occasionally, and only from practicing testers who can point to real work. We do not publish unlabelled sponsored content or scraped tutorials. Pitch us with a writing sample and a proposed outline.
5.How do I report a factual error?
Email softwaretestingsapiens@gmail.com with the article URL and the correction. We aim to acknowledge within 24 business hours and publish a fix within 72 hours, with an update note at the top of the article.
6.Do you use AI to write content?
Yes, as a drafting and research tool — and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. AI helps us gather sources, produce first drafts and check grammar. A named human QA engineer then restructures the piece, verifies every technical claim, runs the code samples and signs off before publication. Data-backed sections (salary bands, skill demand, job counts) come from our own Jobs Radar dataset, not from a model.
