LinkUp job listing data, collected daily and directly from company websites, can add crucial insight into market trends, evolving industry practices, and role-specific framework standards at the industry level.
Using LinkUp’s reservoir of job listing data, scholars from the University of Genova analyzed millions of job listings to explore the relevance of the testing phase in software development, which testing categories are the most adopted (e.g., unit vs. acceptance vs. end-to-end as well as manual vs. automated), and which frameworks and tools are the most used in practice. Because job listings often include software familiarity, coding language, or operational requirements, they are a direct source of information regarding what skills are most in-demand for software developers or engineers.
