How about liberal arts girls doing software testing?

In general, the threshold for software testing is relatively low, and the academic requirements are not high, and a junior college is fine!

When you talk about software programming, you should be talking about software development, right? Software development is recommended for girls not to join, not suitable for girls to do (and the work life is short, about 40 years old can not keep up, must change careers to do management direction), on the contrary, software testing is especially suitable for girls to do, the reasons:

Liberal arts students, female students are more suitable than science students, and non-computer majors are more suitable than computer majors.

Why? First of all, because the technical threshold for software testing work is not high. Judging from the global experience, students with a college degree or above in science and engineering, and a bachelor's degree or above in liberal arts (especially majors in foreign languages, finance and economic management) are an important part of the composition of software testing engineers.

Secondly, because software test engineers are engaged in more coordination and management positions, there are certain requirements for communication skills and management skills, and liberal arts students are often better at these aspects. Some large-scale software outsourcing companies usually do not recruit computer science students to do software testing work, because this group of people tends to seek higher salaries and is less stable, while non-computer science students are relatively more pragmatic and stable. Based on the above three factors, non-computer science majors who want to work in IT companies can consider choosing the career of software testing engineer.

Girls are very good for testing, and I'm currently learning to take tests, and most of the classes are girls.

The landlord is ready to choose the course for self-study, especially the C and the data structure must be passed, but the development direction of the test is different, if you plan to do the test of embedded systems such as mobile phones, then the database can not be read

The threshold is low, depending on how to say it, the salary of a formal software testing engineer is even higher than that of a software engineer, but there seems to be very few formal tests in China, so there is still a good chance to find such a job in China, but you have to be psychologically prepared, it is very boring, at least I have no interest at all.

For example, I heard before that (hearsay is unconfirmed) that Microsoft hires some housewives or similar people to do functional testing and smoke testing, because it is these people who don't understand anything to catch bugs, so developers can't detect bugs. But in general, the domestic eyebrows and mustaches are grasped, and it is not easy to have special testers, if there is, I am afraid that it will take a long time for several types of tests to be carried out, of course, it is not excluded that there are also good companies.

Anyway, I think if you're interested, you might as well give it a try.

Girls are still suitable for girls, and the landlord's subjects are almost the same, so study hard.

Give you another forum to communicate with others.

There is no gender advantage in software testing, and testing is less intensive than software development. The process of testing the main job of finding software defects requires patience and meticulousness, which happens to be what girls are good at. Therefore, software testing positions are more suitable for women.

Software testing is divided into manual testing and automated testing.

Manual testingIt is divided into functional testing, performance testing, and interface testing.

Automated testingFunctional automated testing, performance automated testing, and interface automated testing.

Software testing positions can be seen from two aspects: salary, benefits, and development prospects.

Salary and benefits。Judging from the current market, the salary of software testing engineering is considerable. The monthly salary of junior test engineers is 5-8k, and the monthly salary of intermediate and senior test engineers is 8-15k, and the salary is higher after becoming a project manager.

Development prospects。There are many development directions for software testing, including automated testing, performance testing, test development, and testing experts.

The management route includes: test team leader, test manager, project manager and other development directions. So the prospects for software testing are promising.

The technical upgrade of software testing work is relatively slow, and it is easier to improve as the testing experience and technical ability are enhanced in actual work. Therefore, it is very good and promising for girls to do software testing work. In addition, the level of effort of the individual and the attitude towards the work are also a point.

The software testing industry has less overtime, and it is enough to complete the daily workload on time. You don't need to master all the test directions, just one or a few directions that you are good at.

Generally speaking, software testers work overtime, and software developers also have to accompany them to fix bugs, but developers work overtime, but testers don't have to accompany them.

Most software testing positions do not require 996, so you can still have your spare time. In addition, software testing focuses on gaining experience, and there is no need to worry about being forced to change careers even if you are old.

So it's not only for girls to study, but also for girls to make a career out of it. Don't worry about whether you can learn or not, there is no problem in studying and practicing step by step, don't set limits for yourself. It is believed that today, when women's sense of independence is awakened and the workplace environment is getting better and better, more women will be engaged in the Internet industry, including software development and software testing.

In fact, software testing engineers are male and female, and the entry threshold is not high, as long as you are interested in software testing, you can learn. Moreover, women are generally more attentive and patient than men, and their communication skills and inclusiveness are stronger, and the R&D departments of many companies are mostly men, so the addition of female members can enliven the team atmosphere and properly balance the ratio of men and women in the team.

So why are there still few female practitioners in the industry?

The fundamental reason is that women need to contribute more to the family than men. The biggest difference between the IT industry and other industries is that technology is changing with each passing day, and you need to ensure the progress of your own capabilities at all times, not to be eliminated by the times, and to continue to learn new technologies. And women get married and have children, they have to take care of their children, and they have to take care of their families, and after becoming a mother, you will become more than capable of doing so, and many people are afraid that they will no longer have time to learn new things.

Of course, the family factors mentioned above also depend on each person's family situation, such as the elderly can help take care of the children, and the husband has more time to take care of the family. In a society where women are used by men and men are used by animals, everyone has to take on their own responsibilities. If you need to share the mission of supporting your family, or if you want to pursue financial independence, but you are interested in software testing and feel that you are a good fit, then you can ignore some outside eyes and go for it.

You can do as well as you want. Moreover, because of scarcity, once you do well, you may get a greater chance of development.

The mental strength of the software test is not large, relatively speaking, it is more suitable for girls, and the software test mainly examines patience and meticulousness, girls have congenital advantages in this regard, and the salary is also very considerable, the general salary is more than 8000, work for one year, and the work is basically more than 10,000 yuan. Of course, it is not easy to achieve this level if you only have a simple manual test (commonly known as "dots and dots").

There are two ways to learn software testing, one is self-study, and the other is to register for classes;

For self-learning ability is relatively strong, there are unique resources (such as having complete software testing materials, knowing friends who are engaged in software testing), you can first self-study to see, self-learning has a very big advantage, that is, the cost is relatively small, at the same time, this is also its very fatal weakness, many self-learning people may encounter some problems, just retreat, because the cost is small, so self-study halfway to give up is particularly many, so the probability of success through self-study is very small.

Of course, here is not to blindly let everyone sign up for classes, the most important thing is to suit yourself, and when looking for a training institution, it is best to choose offline courses, face-to-face teaching, the classroom atmosphere will be better, there are students to supervise learning together, there are questions can be answered in time, compared to online courses, it will not be so dry grass.

The best, I hope that all the friends who see here can successfully change careers and go to work smoothly!

Perfect for.

Software testing is to find software bugs, girls are more careful, serious, this job is very suitable for girls. In addition, most of the programmers are male, and their personalities are relatively straight, and the male test finds out the bug for the programmer to change, and the programmer may go back. And the female test to find a programmer to correct the bug, at least will not be scolded.

Society will tell you that in any industry, you will do it, do the right way, and endure hardships for a few more years.
