Friends, have you seen the related video of ChatGPT in the previous paragraph, so what is it? What impact will it have on the software testing industry?
Today Huizhimei uses an article to explain clearly to everyone.
1. What is ChatGPT?
To put it simply, ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence chat robot, which is different from ordinary robots in that it can understand the content of the context, and can improvise according to your questions, so that there are questions and answers.
The reason why ChatGPT can cause such a big response on the Internet lies in its super high creative ability.
For example: writing a movie script, writing a news report, translating a book, writing a program instead of a programmer, etc. But writing alone is not enough, and its content is so powerful that it should not be underestimated.
Google gave ChatGPT the interview papers for recruiting programmers. In the end, ChatGPT's paper score reached the admission score for Google's third-level software engineer.
Therefore, many friends who have watched the ChatGPT video call out that they are going to lose their jobs! Therefore, it is not only a nightmare for literary creators, but also a nightmare for code farmers and programmers.
What skills do software test engineers need? Can automated testing replace manual testing in the future? What are the career development prospects of a software testing engineer?
In response to the above questions, let's take a look at how ChatGPT responds?
2. Dialogue ChatGPT
Q1: What skills do you think a software test engineer needs?
Q2: Do you think automated testing can replace manual testing in the future?
Q3: Can you talk about the career development prospects of software test engineers?
3. Teacher Huizhi Power has something to say
Huizhimei not only directly talked with ChatGPT, but also invited Huizhi Power, teachers with nearly 20 years of experience in software testing, to give you an answer.
ChatGPT is not just a chatbot, but may be a disruptor of existing search engines.
The original search engine is actually a one-to-many model, and everyone needs to filter by themselves to make a judgment. On the basis of search, the current ChatGPT also has a strong information integration function.
For software testing students, it is even more important to make good use of their guidance and suggestions on automated testing, and use them as a learning tool to continuously improve their learning ability.
It seems that ChatGPT can perfectly build tens of thousands of parts, but how to assemble, structure and run is actually impossible. It lacks the experience and intuition of human testers.
Software testing itself is an extremely complex project, which is constrained by many practical factors, such as: hardware failure, industry development, cost estimation, etc., so it requires specific analysis of specific issues, so ChatGPT has no way to replace manual testing.
In the future, software testing workers must continue to learn. Apart from computer-related underlying principles, OS architecture and operating mechanism, and test platforms, they must pay more attention to the development and design of test frameworks. In the follow-up, according to your own situation, you can choose a direction to carry out deep cultivation, build your own barriers, and have the ability not to be replaced.
Such as business function testing, it is necessary to continuously dig out business knowledge and learn more about excellent functional testing methods. For interface and friendliness testing, you need to know more about browser incompatibility, user psychological behavior, vision and senses, and aesthetics. Automated testing, that may require you to understand the automation framework.
An excellent tester will have one aspect that he is best at, and at the same time have extensive knowledge of computer engineering technology and other fields of knowledge.
The road is obstructed and long, but the journey is approaching.
Today, as various technologies are constantly updated and iterated, ChatGPT may become the hottest topic in 2023. Even in the next few years, ChatGPT will bring great changes to the entire technology industry and even society.
