"Five years, do you know how I spent these five years?"
In 5 years, I went from outsourcing to Byte all the way, and I said a very vulgar sentence, now I really want to thank myself for working hard at the beginning, and thank myself for jumping out of my comfort zone,
The salary of outsourcing is really quite high. When I first graduated, choosing outsourcing is also a fancy salary. For a fresh graduate, the temptation of high salary is really irresistible. Although the salary of outsourcing is expensive, you know , the work pressure is really too great, and more importantly, there is no human rights, do you understand, there is no human rights, there are often things that the headquarters company bullies and insults outsourced employees, and you still have nothing to do, because you are an outsourced employee, and other companies do not May help you, so often get angry
There is also nothing to learn from outsourcing, and there is no room for improvement at all. Many people have been working with us for decades and are still working in the same position with us, and their ambitions have been obliterated by the tedious work of outsourcing. Jumping out of the outsourcing heart, I have been content with the status quo, I feel that I will be like this in my life, and I can barely support myself, but I am different. It can't be wiped out.
I started to learn automation. Although I am in outsourcing, at least I still do testing. Although I can’t improve myself at work, it doesn’t mean that I can’t improve myself. I use the opportunity of my work to learn and practice
I want to say that if you are in any company, don’t say that you can’t learn anything, but think about it: what can you use from this company to improve yourself.
Enterprises can provide projects, this is true, what can you learn from this project, what kind of ideas can you develop on the premise of this project.
Enterprises can provide servers, can you handle common shell commands on this basis? Commonly used bat commands?
In short, you want to write, and the open web can provide most of the information you want.
However, the so-called mentor, a good mentor is just a guide, everything depends on yourself
that's all
I resigned from outsourcing and joined Byte. Of course, I omitted a lot of nonsense in the middle. I just want to say that improving technology and investing in myself is the best way to get out of the predicament. I am glad that I am not affected by the surrounding environment. I I didn't lose my fighting spirit, jumped out of my comfort zone, and became a better version of myself!
Let me share my learning path below!

The above is a knowledge architecture diagram of the development direction of software testing engineers that I compiled for you. I hope that everyone can complete the construction of such a system within 3-4 years according to this system. It can be said that this process will make you miserable, but as long as you get through it. Later life will be much easier. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as you take the first step, you have already succeeded in half, and when you look back on this journey after completion, you will definitely feel a lot of emotion.
Finally, I would like to thank everyone who has read my article carefully. Reciprocity is always necessary. Although it is not a very valuable thing, you can take it away if you need it:
These materials should be the most comprehensive and complete preparation warehouse for [software testing] friends. This warehouse has also accompanied tens of thousands of test engineers through the most difficult journey, and I hope it can help you! Partners can click the small card below to receive
