"Checking vacancies and making up for leaks" on the software test resume, whether you design it completely, and escort you for the autumn recruitment
What do you need to master for testing?
Almost all test resumes are talking about how to do the test, how many projects have been tested, how the test process is, how to manage the test, black box, white box, gray box, color box..., can write plans, test Example. From these contents, I can't see what you will be, what are your strengths technically, JAVA programming? C programming? Script programming? database? JAVAEE? ESB? BPM? SOA? Which industry, bank are you familiar with in business? telecommunications? public security? Medical? You have participated in the tests of so many projects. What is your role in these projects? What did you do? What effect did it have? It can be said that 90% of the resumes do not see such content, that is, after reading the resume, I don’t know what you will be. Here is a question: Is it enough to apply for a test position? Is it enough to write a test? So is it enough for application development to just write about how to develop? If your algorithm is good, you can write "Able to use C, JAVA to implement various algorithms", if you can write such an article in your resume, it is better than you have participated in the list The development of dozens of projects is strong, and there will be a good bonus effect.
What is software testing?
Testing is actually a process of applying computer technology and industry knowledge to conduct a rigorous test of software products. Just imagine if you test a database, you don’t understand the database at all, how to test it? If you test a bank’s business system and you don’t understand this business knowledge, how do you test it? Even if you are a junior tester and don't understand the relevant business, can you judge whether the result of the use case is correct or wrong? If all are judged according to the expected results in the test cases, then the effect of the entire test is completely dependent on the level of the person who wrote the test cases. This person must be a god. Where is the team’s cooperation effect reflected? How do you grow?
For software testing, you must first be familiar with the functions of the product being tested and related background knowledge, so that you can fully verify and check the quality of the tested software. Testing tools and testing methods are just to better test the software, and a skill that must be mastered, just like a developer must be able to use JAVA, and a document must be written in Word.
For technical personnel, what is fundamental, I don’t know if you have thought about this issue. For developers, you might say that I can program, and I will do whatever you want me to do. For testers, you might say, I can test, I can test various "boxes", come on, I can test everything. If you think about the problem in this way, then I can tell you very responsibly that you will always stay at the personnel level, and the high salary basically has nothing to do with you.
If you are very familiar with a certain technology or the business knowledge of a certain industry, then you have a lot of choices for your career development. If you like to consider the overall situation and like to deal with users, then you can do Product manager, if you like fiddling with technology and are willing to do overall design, you can be an architect. If you like to give pointers to what others do, and like to evaluate what is done, you can do testing and quality assurance, if you When you explain a product to others clearly, and get the recognition of others, you can get a great sense of satisfaction and recognition. You can do pre-sales, if you can get a sense of pleasure and accomplishment after solving the problems in actual operation , Like to get the praise from users, you can do after-sales support. Moreover, no matter which role you are in, you are definitely leading a group of people to do this.
After so much longing, I hope that all brothers and sisters who are engaged in software testing, when updating their resumes, think carefully about what else you can do besides being able to test. For those who are planning to engage in software testing, choose the profession of testing. At that time, I had enough knowledge about software testing.
Is the test really that simple? If it is really that simple, the high salary and the test will be missed. If you are engaged in or are planning to engage in testing, think so, it is best to consider another career.
