They believe if you do not know any tools that are available in the market and the ones mentioned in job openings, you are not a tester."<BR/>but i feel there is nothing wrong in being a tool smith, in fact I think every tester should strive to be.<BR/>Rather than finding out who coined the term "sanity testing" it is good if one find out how he can automate his testing process, makes scripts which are reusable, how to overcome the limitation of testing. And it doesn't harm in learning new tools and technology available in the market.<BR/>Sorry, if I am sounding immature.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159329745230341242006-09-27T09:32:00.000+05:302006-09-27T09:32:00.000+05:30as usual this was another eye opener for testers i...as usual this was another eye opener for testers in india. i wish everyone tester reads this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159295724774824122006-09-27T00:05:00.000+05:302006-09-27T00:05:00.000+05:30@Victor, That was a good diplomatic reply to the a...@Victor,<BR/><BR/> That was a good diplomatic reply to the above question and thanks for the explanation.Pradeep Soundararajanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17849721523107325938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159254541871670852006-09-26T12:39:00.000+05:302006-09-26T12:39:00.000+05:30For those who ask "Is it wrong to work as a tester...For those who ask "Is it wrong to work as a tester?".<BR/><BR/>It is not wrong. It is fine to work in any position you want.<BR/>You just have to try to do your best in the job. And, in testing, I too think you have to be a tester to do a great job.<BR/>So, if you start working as a tester because this is what you got into and then you like it and start learning and so on, it is ok.<BR/>But if you start working as a tester and then you just go to work and wait for payment, I think it is not ok.<BR/><BR/>And this applies to any work - if you like it, you will be good, but if you just go for the money and don't like it, sometime you will cause/have problems.<BR/><BR/>Good luck,<BR/>VictorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159193915159545552006-09-25T19:48:00.000+05:302006-09-25T19:48:00.000+05:30It was very good article pradeep, i see you unders...It was very good article pradeep, i see you understand the current trend very well and I admit, I am working as a tester but i will become a tester soon.<BR/><BR/>i need your help and please help me to become a tester.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159193714732575262006-09-25T19:45:00.000+05:302006-09-25T19:45:00.000+05:30Do you see anything wrong in the people who work a...<I>Do you see anything wrong in the people who work as a tester? </I><BR/><BR/>Its a good question *Anonymous*.<BR/><BR/>Working as a tester is not wrong as long as you are making efforts to becoming a tester and or you appreciate someone who is being a tester.Pradeep Soundararajanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17849721523107325938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159190936851021632006-09-25T18:58:00.000+05:302006-09-25T18:58:00.000+05:30Hi Pradeep,Do you see anything wrong in the people...Hi Pradeep,<BR/>Do you see anything wrong in the people who work as a tester? <BR/>After reading your article I am bit confused as in which category I lie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21132099.post-1159186688797933002006-09-25T17:48:00.000+05:302006-09-25T17:48:00.000+05:30I agree with you pradeep, whatever research you di...I agree with you pradeep, whatever research you did is really true, but friend, this trend is created not by testers, but the organizations whose process define such, they dont think how much person is talented, how much he gives output, no nop, they will never think, they think only about the work done, and in this scenario, even if a one tester get the whole work load, is not gonna be problem to management or Qa mnager, or a test lead.<BR/><BR/>It really feels that someone is there who thinks about this all, because when you become a test lead, or test manager, you will realize this aspect and judge a person perfectly and create a great process.<BR/><BR/>explaining the truth to peoples who themselves know at what level they are, will create a revolution, and becuase of this i am big fan of Pradeep.<BR/><BR/>Keep posting Pradeep, you are genius.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
