5 Annual test , Should be able to reach the level of Senior Test , That is, not only can you skillfully develop business , And be familiar with project development , test , Commissioning and release process , In addition, they should be able to fully master the skills in database and other aspects , If the skill is higher , Even familiar with advanced skills such as distributed components . Or , Be a project team leader , Tube 3,4 No. person , No problem .
I talked about this with my friends these two days , Sigh that young people are so excellent now , After all , Software testing industry is still a technical post , With the continuous change of careers and the crazy influx of graduates into the software testing industry , The ceiling of the industry is also gradually rising , Once those testers who only knew a little bit were more and more difficult to gain a foothold in the industry , Will gradually be replaced by automation test engineers and test development engineers .
My career is the same as most testers , I just graduated from an e-commerce company and outsourced functional tests , It should be more than half a year , Busy at work , Spend every day learning and learning from various business needs , After several years, I found that I was just a functional test engineer , Watching the people around me go farther and farther on the road of Technology , And I can only test the function , Anxiety also arises spontaneously , The overall feeling of this job is that I write a lot of test cases , I have become quite proficient in writing test cases by myself , Testing skills haven't improved much , The work that really needs technology has no opportunity because of insufficient technical ability , Several times I doubt whether my career planning direction is correct , So I began to reflect , How do you go in the future ?
<> Start advanced
So I began to look for ways to improve , Start researching tools ,Postman,Fiddler,Jmeter,Selenium,Appium, It can be downloaded online anyway , All over again , Discover these tools , It's very simple and practical to use , It must be easy to get started , And start writing your own code , At least don't leave behind what you learned in College , at that time python Tried to write （ For the project of the team python Written ）, I tried to change the style of the front end , This is easy , browser F12, You can change it on it .
On premise BUG Just say the height of this box is wrong , Now I will say ：overflow Not written , Box level z-index No, wait , All in all , I can point out your shortcomings , I can also provide modification suggestions , This is very fulfilling for me , It can also be seen from the mute attitude of development , My position was elevated all at once !
Of course I'm not in a hurry to change jobs , I began to test our project with various tools , He also made a lot of suggestions to the Department Manager , At that time, the manager didn't know much about the test , I said that I was stunned , At that time, due to the company's size and product limitations , As a result, automated testing has not been applied to the company's actual projects . I think big companies outside have more opportunities , Resolutely put forward the resignation , Focus on Ali's interview !
<> Successful interview ashore
With the recommendation of classmates , I signed up xx Organization's Software Testing Courses . Although I have experience in automated testing , However, it is still necessary to enroll in class for systematic learning , On the one hand, it is to strengthen the training , Systematically consolidate the technology stack ; on the other hand , The course content also reassured me , Maybe there will be new gains in the learning process .
In formal learning , It really exceeded my expectations , Necessary for developing test platforms or tools Web front end ,Spring Boot Back end and database design , Very practical .
What the teacher said was also very good , My learning process is also very smooth , All the knowledge taught in class can be understood and how to apply it to work , Especially from 0 reach 1 Project analysis for , Learning of design and development knowledge , Let me calmly face the development of a new testing tool , Work quickly . After a period of training , I feel more solid in technology . More than one month , From notes to open class , Various interview questions from projects to seniors , And the previous exam , It's all over , Then focus on those interview questions that appear frequently , Well prepared for this interview !!
It's hard to avoid some panic at first , Under the guidance of the leaders and technical teachers in the learning exchange group , I have found many technical problems and I have been in touch with them , Suddenly, there was an inexplicable confidence . About a week after the interview , I just 4 Took Ali's automated test post . The interview process is as exciting as a roller coaster ride , Especially three sides , What a terrible process !!! But I'm glad I'm well prepared , Enough to deal with the interviewer's critical and mean questions ! During the interview , I think the interviewer is most impressed , In addition to solid technology , And familiarity with the project . Basically , The interviewer asked me questions about the project , I can answer it , And can tell the truth .
From previous 3K Up to now 30k, I believe that , The harder you work, the luckier you will be ! henceforth , I also want to make greater progress in technology , Achieve advanced test opening , We should also develop in the direction of advanced development , Finally, of course, I have the opportunity to work for the management post . Understand code better than development , Know more about technology than testing , Such competitiveness , Will be stronger .
My path to automated testing , The plan of each stage is indispensable along the way , Because I like planning and collecting summaries , therefore , My friend and I spent some time to compile the following 《 Automated test engineer learning path 》, A lot of them 【 Network disk resources 】, The end of the text can be viewed

The above is a technical path map of Automation Test Engineer I sorted out . I hope you can benefit a lot from this growth process . Omnidirectional lifting test technology , Establish a set of its own technical system . Help you learn and optimize the technology stack , Follow up on advanced and mainstream testing technologies , It will not only bring you the improvement of technology and salary , It's more about changing the tester IT Status and mindset in the field of Technology , Enhance the technical depth of the testing industry .
Finally, I would like to thank everyone who has read my article carefully , The following automated network disk link is also a very comprehensive one that I spent a few days sorting out , Hope it can help you in need !
These materials , For doing 【 software test 】 It should be the most comprehensive and complete war preparation warehouse for advanced friends , This warehouse also accompanied me through the most difficult journey , Hope it can help you ! Everything must be done as soon as possible , Especially in the technology industry , We must improve our technical skills . Hope to help you …….
