New To S/W Testing. Need suggestions.
#3
Hi NANI,

I do not fully agree with Cpt.Zack because of the following reasons.

1. It is important to know the concepts and develop good understanding on the skills like performance testing, vb scripting, etc.
2. In an organization if there are 500 employees then as per the industry standard
Management:30
Devlopers: 350+
QA Manual testing: 100
QA Automation: 25
Performance tester: 10

You can see manual testing is always on the higher side of value creation to the project.
Moreover Testing it self is an art and not just test case execution
Tools and scripting are learnable skills so if you have understanding of any programming language it will help but if you do not have testing skills then it wont help you to grow.

Some people treat manual testing as aboring and not so recognized task but believe me it is the most important part of the software life cycle after development.

Again growth prospect depends on the organization and individual and not the skill/ technology that one is working.
People who say Manual testing is not so good are the people who do not understand the testing craft.
My advise to you is Just do not be a tool smith but be a skilled tester.
