A story about a fresher who starting his career as a
software testing professional in a small organization
Second day with lot of questions for a single concept
The third day he feels alone when comparing himself with his friends, who were placed as a developer in various organization
While
googling about the testing he got an answer in “yahoo answer” that “Testing is
just a typing work”, yeah at that time he had a training to write test cases.
He feels sad and weak inside
When his discussing with his friends about
testing. They used to ask “Are you in Testing”. He suddenly replies yeah in the
XXX organization, the organization is quickly developing one, organization has achieved a lot, organization having leading professionals. Suddenly friends stop him and ask about
“Testing” not about organization, he replies yeah I'm a tester what's your problem
about testing. Friends reply as same like a “Yahoo Answer” “Testing is just a
typing work and testing is non IT”.
“But Google Gave Different Answer” to him.
When he type “AI”, Google list Aiswarya Rai as
first suggestion suddenly, because she is a famous celebrity in India
Like that when he type “Software” in google, the
first suggestion is “Software Testing”.
Little
hope raised inside him.
Even though he is not ready to believe google alone. Starts googling to find what is the difference between “Testing Vs. Developing”
After referring a lot of blogs and articles about “Testing and Developing”. He got an answer “Tester and Developer” are not so much different, but they have different path to the same goal. To improve quality”
Then he finds people who are all belonging to testing in his circle
Now again another question “Testing” ok but there is More than 100 types of testing
But who is he in this organization in testing circle.
Tester need to be focused on all kinds of testing in the small organization.
Training
in a big organization, single coach teaches more than 40 peoples in a batch
Inverse in
small organization
Yeah,
here lot of experienced people give training to single person like a “Personal
Trainers”
Training
starts with “Software Life Cycle"
After
every training season, manager used to ask question. He sudden reply except
that he understand everything.
Start with my first test cases
He needs
to get review with his whole team members (personal trainers)
Every
time he expect the worst feedback, but they kindly explain about each and every activity
which are needed to include in “Test Cases”
Now
started “System Testing” as a fresher, he is not clear how to test complete
system.
Searched lot of blogs related to “System Testing”
Got his first “Project”
Start finding bugs, as scoring an interesting game when playing it. Bugs are different from one another
Don’t
know which type of bug is this “Critical” or “High” or “Small” or “Low”. The
team helped him a lot to when he start his first project
Finally
become “Perfect” tester, as not like a developer to hit the exact target,
hitting everywhere to find the quality of the product.
Excellent......!!!
