Test thinking is a kind of thinking mode and ability that software test engineers should have when conducting testing work. It is a holistic and systematic way of thinking that aims to identify potential defects, problems, and risks, and manage and control them effectively. The first time Songqin Software Testing heard the term "test thinking" was 10 years ago.
At that time, I was still a fledgling newbie, and I added various test groups here and there, just to learn a little more. It's not bad, and I found a big guy to be a master in many active groups. This master is very practical, first understands my own situation, and then makes a plan for me. Just like our new students, we will talk to the teacher before class and make study plans.
After the master talked to me, he gave me a sentence: you are just starting now, you must first master the test thinking, this understanding is in place, and then it is easier to learn the rest.
If you want to master test thinking, you can practice the following:
1.In-depth study and understanding of the theories and methods of software testing. Learn about a wide range of commonly used testing techniques and tools, as well as the latest developments in the field of testing.
2.Participate in testing on real projects and experience and practice different types of testing tasks. Hands-on experience to consolidate and improve testing skills.
3.Read relevant books, blogs, and ** to be inspired and inspired by the experiences of other professionals to enhance your test thinking skills.
4.Participate in testing-related training and seminars, communicate and interact with other test engineers and industry experts, and broaden your horizons and way of thinking.
5.Constantly reflect on and summarize the experience and lessons of testing work, and form your own testing thinking mode and approach. Through continuous practice and reflection, I will continue to improve my ability to think test.
Testing thinking is an important cornerstone of the career development of software test engineers, and only by mastering testing thinking can we better find and solve problems in software, and improve software quality and user experience.
