Usually choose one of the two, the cruelest. If you choose one, you must give up the other. But for testing and development, you have me, I have you is the highest level. Which one is right for you?

The "width" of a tester

Master the theoretical knowledge of software testing: software test definition, software test classification and common methods of software testing. A search on the Internet is full of theoretical knowledge, do not say more, here you can learn from this aspect. Of course, you also need to have a strong thirst for knowledge.

Smooth communication, the pursuit of perfection: I first thought of × × seat (non-black ha), testers should have a skeptical and perfect attitude, although not for all, but smooth communication is necessary.

Career development direction: excellent software test engineers should not only master computer knowledge, programming language, at least one development language (such as C, JAVA, etc.), for future career development, to have some professional knowledge of development is more conducive to future career development. Database knowledge: operating system on Linux, Unix core commands. Knowledge of network communication. There is another point is to master the mainstream software testing tools: 1, automated testing tools typically represent QTP (the most classic, everyone push ah), needless to say very powerful; 2, TestWriter (not the mainstream, because it is free, can do basic operations), UI automated testing tools, zero coding is simple and easy to maintain data 3, test management tool QC;4, and contact performance testing tool Jmeter, very simple self-study is also possible;

Software Development: focus on Technology for one hundred years

Software development, of course, for the above testers need to know the knowledge, developers need to master database knowledge, proficient in development language, proficient in operating systems, as well as network knowledge and so on. Generally do development, are very patient, because writing code time is very time-consuming and boring things, and the rigid requirements of the body is relatively large, often encounter overtime to catch up with the project, so there are requirements for physical quality. The promotion of the position generally goes through the promotion of development engineer, development project manager, development manager, development director or R & D director. A pure technical position in software development. But the salary level is higher than that of software testing.

Occupation has nothing to do with gender.

Many people on the Internet ask whether girls are suitable for software testing or software development. I just want to say, from the above. The occupation itself has nothing to do with gender, but we need to consider such objective factors as ability, physical fitness and personal interest.
