@Reid-Cooper Great advice, Reid-copper thank you. What's your advice on any programming language to learn? eg java, c, c++, objective C or Python etc And how can i start as possible or any direction to start learn programme now? Thank you i appreciate
Objective C is very popular for Mac OSX desktop app programming. But that is a very limited job space. There is no server size Objective C and even the Apple programming community is leaving Objective C to move to Swift today. If you wanted to limit yourself to Apple OSX and iOS graphical app testing, I think that Swift would make more sense.

Rails is a framework that would not apply to testing. You would learn Python or Ruby, but not Rails. Nothing wrong with Rails, but that's not something that you would use on the testing side and would only be applicable to you if you were specifically testing Ruby on Rails, rather than normal Ruby, applications.
Also, Ruby on Rails has integrated testing, so the need for testing team for it is less. So the number of jobs for testing Rails applications will be lower than the number of Rails developers would lead you to believe.

I recommend Python. Better for learning, more general use cases.

I like Python as well for your first language. Ruby is a nice language, but it is not used all that much and tends to be a bit unique.

@Reid-Cooper YES Reid. thanks. I pick Python. What's do you think about Java"toward testing? Java can be used in web, desktop and mobile application. phyton better than java? Please explain. Thank you.
