Shulou(Shulou.com)06/03 Report--

First of all, introduce yourself first. If you read the article, you need to know what the author does.

IDO Xu, an Internet practitioner and software testing veteran, has been engaged in software testing since 2008. He has experienced three companies, from test cakes to company test leaders, leading the test team to be responsible for the company's entire product system.

Focus on testing career exploration, test management, project management, testing experience talk; share your own testing views, testing experience; hope to make your career path less detours!

The author makes an analysis and presentation based on his occupation: software testing, as well as other professional and technical communication groups.

As a god-like profession in the field of IT, software testing has really sprung up in recent years!

Today Xu shared: why the major test groups are full of zombies. Never speak, never change his name, never withdraw from the group

What kind of psychology is it?

Let's take a look at a set of data:

The following two pictures

The most active 2000 people test large groups.

The most active 2000 people test large groups.

The above two groups of pictures are the top 10 software testing groups among the most active people in the testing industry.

The most active, only about 800 people are active, with an activity rate of less than 40% (what do you think of the activity rate? Xu will not expand here.)

Some groups even have an activity rate of only 20-30%!

So the question is, what are the members of these groups doing? Why do you never bubble after joining the group?

Of course, everyone may know about this phenomenon, think about it, and know some reasons more or less, but they don't think deeply, share it, or discuss it.

Today, Xu briefly states some personal views. You are welcome to add and discuss:

Let's first discuss why the test professional communication group is so hot, so many! (there should be at least 1000 software testing related groups; there are no statistics, just guesses; friends who have done this data statistics are welcome to send it to Xu)

1. Students in the field of IT should know that in the testing area, the whole is still relatively weak. Many beginners even work for several years, but they are only a functional tester and can simply click the mouse, so they urgently need to join the group and communicate with you.

two。 And many beginners, or college graduates, think that testing is very simple. If you want to pursue a testing career, the first thing that comes to mind is to enter the test communication group.

3. Of course, there are many people who transfer from other professions to testing, the most is development to testing. Now that we have entered the testing industry, many ideas, tools, methods, processes, etc., are still different from testing. There is an urgent need for communication, and the easiest way is, of course, to enter the industry communication group.

4. Many students want to go deep and learn some automated tests and performance tests. the first thing that comes to mind is to join the relevant professional test group and communicate with Daniel.

5. Testing, as an atypical technical group, is in urgent need of a network platform to chat with peers. So must belong to the group.

So why do groups only have so little activity rate?

1. Many Daniel originally planned to join the group to share, found that the group is full of all kinds of chatting all day, and then directly blocked the group (why not just quit the group? This has something to do with people's psychology, blocking messages is easier to reach than withdrawing from the group.

two。 Many beginners, or rookies, originally intended to ask questions, but they were afraid that their questions were too simple and despised. Over time, they lay in the group silently watching everyone chat and be a quiet zombie.

3. There are too many groups and do not have much energy to chat one by one; so basically only active in some groups (large groups, a lot of repetitive members; basically no individual has dozens of test groups)

4. Asked questions several times, no one answered, no people and birds, after a while did not speak; did not achieve the original intention to answer questions

5. Many students, just to add groups, so many active communication groups, all want to join, in case they miss any wonderful technical knowledge, or blowing water topics

6. The centralized camp management of some groups makes it impossible for members to communicate freely: for example, too simple questions are not allowed to ask, do not publish information, font color and size requirements, etc., which constrains too much fun of communication and discussion. (this article is adopted from the viewpoint of Xu reader: code8192.forerunner)

As above, over time, the group has become a small number of small circle daily chat blowing water group!

Can any of the above situations resonate?

If there is still something Xu doesn't know, you are welcome to add.

Digression:

Is there a real technical exchange group that can answer questions and questions and have a strong technical atmosphere?

How to solve the above situation?

Of course, there are solutions for improvement. I will share and communicate with you next time.

If you want to exchange your views with Xu in real time, share your experience, like Xu to inquire about your problems.

Add Group "Software testing: invite you to come with us" (339611752) to communicate with Xu in real time.

Share, grow and harvest!
