Software development is more promising than software testing, is it true?
Tencent Youtest explained to you that in the
past few years, many domestic software companies generally have the phenomenon of "re-development, please test". Even in many Internet companies, there are no software testing posts at all, and the launch is purely development and non-professional Internal testing of personnel.
Although this can save a certain amount of labor cost, and some common functional problems can be tested and corrected, this testing method still has certain risks.
In 15 years, there was a product called Footprint, which automatically attracted a large number of users to register and use within 3 days of its launch. As a result, users would become problematic after using it several times, and some functions could not work properly, causing users It comes fast and goes fast. After the later product optimization and launch, users have lost enthusiasm.
In fact, this product itself is very good, but later because of quality problems, it lost the user's approval, and it is difficult for the seed user to uninstall it and download it again after it is upgraded again.
From the perspective of job salary, software development engineers have to face many development environments and constantly modify the code, so there will be a lot of repetitive and tedious work. If you want to engage in development work, these people should not be too impatient and have to bear the loneliness.
The test engineer’s personality is best to be relatively outgoing. Although this does not mean that you need to be as extroverted and good at communicating with people as the starter, at least you have to be willing to actively communicate with developers and users. In addition, the test engineer is also required to be more sensitive, more skeptical, picky, pursue perfect personality, and be more inquisitive.
From the perspective of development prospects, as the software industry matures, users are more concerned about product experience and safety, and major companies are paying more and more attention to software testing; from the perspective of recruitment needs, software testing The number of job recruitments is clearly rising; from the perspective of salary levels, the salary of software testers is also increasing. Although more and more people have joined the software industry in recent years, it is not difficult to find from the gap data: Compared with the current situation of increasingly saturated development and fierce competition, software testers will be in a blue ocean state for a long time.
The concept of "Internet +" has penetrated into all walks of life. Many traditional industries have gradually transformed, and the company's business volume has surged. Coupled with the entrepreneurial trend and personnel turnover, the talent gap in the entire IT industry will continue to expand.
Moreover, testing is different from the mass production and batch training of developers. In the academic education stage, universities generally lack the systematic training of software testing majors, and there are even few universities offering "software testing" majors. In the non-academic education stage, formal , Professional software testing training and education institutions are also few.
The shortage of professional talents is in short supply, which is natural.
