Six Essential Skills for Modern Testers NEW Prior Year Content
Testing as a profession is becoming more and more demanding. We must adapt to faster development lifecycles, get to know about exploratory testing, and use different ways to add greater value to our projects. Bart Knaack believes that if we are to rise to this challenge, we need to learn additional skills—requirements engineering, database manipulation and monitoring using SQL, usability heuristics, exploratory testing, visual notation techniques for test preparation, and creation of test data. By mastering these skills, we will not only become better testers but we also can mentor others in their work. These skills enable us to improve software quality by means other than just testing. Come and learn about these skills and what is expected of a tester in today’s environment. Practice these skills and start off in the right direction for further improvement.
