In September of this year, the small company of my former colleague fired more than 30 programmers, including him who did the test.
Nearly three months have passed, and most people cannot find suitable jobs. When we chatted, we were all feeling that many industries have been sluggish in the past two years.
Most of the business was suspended this time. In the end, only 4 more powerful programmers were left in the team and merged into another company, and the original small company was closed.
Of course, there are many reasons for being cut. When the boss interviews the employee, sometimes in order to make it easier for the employee to accept, he will say that the company is not doing well and will close down, the general environment is not good, and the industry trend is declining, but he will not tell you: Your ability may not be good.
There is a question on Zhihu: Is the number of programmers in China saturated or surplus? Some netizens used the omnipotent 12-character summary: high-end is scarce, mid-range is balanced, and low-end is saturated. Programmers can only escape the risk of being laid off by standing on a high ground.
Only by constantly improving yourself can you stand out in the harsh environment of introversion.
I am also a person who loves to learn. As a person who has experienced it, I have a deep understanding of the difficulties in the learning process.
If you are also developing in the direction of automated test development, at the right age, choose the right position, and give full play to your advantages!
My road to automated testing is inseparable from the plan at each stage along the way, because I like planning and collecting summaries, so my friends and I spent a period of time organizing and writing the following "Learning Route for Automated Test Engineers", I have also sorted out a lot of [network disk resources]. Friends who need it can click on the small card at the end of the article to get the network disk link. Hope that will bring you help and direction.
1. Python programming language
2. Automated testing framework
3. Interface automated testing
4. Web/UI automated testing
5. Continuous integration
6. Performance test
7. Web security testing
8. Test development
I hope that everyone will continue to explore and improve according to this learning framework route, and break through the bottleneck of technology. 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.
As someone who has been here, I also hope that everyone will avoid some detours. If you don’t want to experience the feeling of not being able to find information when learning, no one answering questions, and giving up after a few days of persistence, here I will share with you some learning about automated testing. Resources, I hope to help you on the way forward.
Collection of software testing interview questions
Our advanced study of automated testing must be to find a high-paying job. The following interview questions are the latest interview materials from first-line Internet companies such as Ali, Tencent, and Byte, and some Byte bosses have given authoritative answers. After completing this set of interview materials, I believe everyone can find a satisfactory job.
This document and video material should be the most comprehensive and complete preparation warehouse for friends who want to engage in [software testing] . This warehouse has also accompanied me through the most difficult journey, and I hope it can help you too! All of the above can be shared.
