Finding a job is as difficult as finding a partner these days, ahem, there are no job targets, double blow 5555.
Regarding this year's job market, many people said that it was particularly bleak. In the past, a large number of companies contacted them once they submitted their resumes. This year, they sent out a lot of resumes by themselves, but they may not be able to read all of them, or there are only a few interview invitations. Looking for a job for 2 months is really nerve-wracking~
Is this the situation you encountered when you were looking for a job?
But when you look at the boss or the job search website, there are actually so many jobs, I am really puzzled. what happened
1. The threshold has become higher, and individuals must continue to improve
1. Increased demand for testing technicians
Large companies because of the problem of spin-off. There is no longer a unified testing technical support department, so each team after the split needs to form a corresponding functional team, and the demand for testing technicians will increase instead.
Small and medium-sized companies also demand quality assurance effects, not only better, but also faster, and also need a large number of technical talents. In recent years, it can also be seen from the job descriptions of various recruitment websites.
2. The disaster of outsourced testing
Companies that used to do outsourcing business in Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea will gradually decline due to the development of the domestic Internet, and they need to transform into domestic.
However, domestic outsourcing business is mostly rejected, and outsourcing business has many drawbacks in terms of efficiency, communication and management. It itself cannot bear the training and long-term development of test engineers. So in the past few years, there will be a large number of outsourced test engineers transforming.
In this regard, new and excellent outsourcing service companies are needed. Only if we have our own testing services, testing technology and senior testing research engineers
3. Test engineers who do not understand development have been eliminated
The first is that there is not much room for advancement at work. The second is that it is also difficult to change jobs. The best results are transfer management with years of experience.
I have communicated with many test managers in the industry. Most of the people who have worked for more than 6 years will burn out in test execution and cannot get started in the improvement of test technology. It is better to recruit interns.
Therefore, the structure of the future test team will basically be the management model of most business test engineers + a few test experts + test managers.
Second, as a software test engineer, what should we do?
After nearly 20 years of development in the domestic testing industry, the salary of the testing industry has been significantly improved, and the overall salary is concentrated between 8K-30K.
According to the data from Zhiyouji, in 2022, the number of software testers whose salary is between 8K-30K will account for more than 80%.
In addition, according to the average salary of the software testing industry over the years according to the statistics of Zhiyouji, everyone really feels that the money in this industry is unlimited~
If you want to enter this industry, you must be steady and steady. Any person in any industry, if he can't keep updating technology and lifelong learning, will face the risk of being eliminated by the times. The times are progressing, the world is progressing, and the constant update and iteration of knowledge is the real magic weapon for our survival .
If you are confused now, can't find the direction, want to learn automated testing but don't know where to start, then read on!
Learning technology sharing
As an automated testing engineer with 8 years of work experience, next I would like to share some of my summaries and summaries of technology over the years, and share my notes on the skills that an advanced tester needs to master. I hope to be able to Help friends who are determined to go all the way on the road of technology!
Let me share the knowledge architecture diagram of the development direction of software testing engineers that I have compiled in 2023, which may be the most complete.
1. Python programming learning content
2. WEB automated testing learning content
3. Learning content of APP automated testing
Four, Postman interface testing tool learning content
Five, API automated testing learning content
6. Learning content of RF automated testing framework
7. Learning content of cross-platform automated testing framework
Eight, JMeter performance test learning content
Of course, while learning automated testing, you must also master the basics. The interviewer likes to grasp the basics most during the interview!
Nine, Fiddler packet capture tool learning content
10. Learning content of TCP/IP protocol
11. Computer operating system learning content
12. Linux system operation learning content
Thirteen, Mysql database learning content
The above is a learning road map from manual testing to automated testing that I compiled . I hope you can learn in this direction. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you take the first step, you are already halfway to success.
at last
It is not enough to learn the road map alone, you can combine some supporting study notes, videos, and documents to learn, which will get twice the result with half the effort! As a person who has been here, I also hope that everyone will avoid some detours, so I have also compiled some learning resources for software automation testing, I believe it will make you better progress! Hope it can help you on your way.
