You can rather learn how to operate with some QA (quality assurance) testing software instead of learning all of the mentioned.
Each company has their own preferences on the methods of software testing -some of them even do not require knowledge of any testing software but just attention to detail. It really depends on what the company is looking for.
Depending on your familiarity with software development and testing it could take you a really broad diapason of time – something from two hours to two months – to familiarize with testing software/procedures.
