Is it right choice to develop software, if continued bugs are coming?

This is quite common when development and testing run in parallel that bugs come. Nowadays Agile model of testing is mostly followed so testing runs in parallel to the software development. It has been seen that because of bugs and errors, sometime software development process become very complicated. Actually Gone are those days when this was a big issue.

If you check in any company then relation between developer and tester would be often not good enough. Testers often blame that development team is not working properly that is why they are getting issues while on the other side development team blames testers that they are finding irrelevant bugs. Developers are those who want to be product shipped ASAP while they find testers as hurdle in the process.

Being a tester, I also think that “why I came to the field of software quality assurance”. It is always a challenge for a tester to come with some bugs. No matter, how well the product has been developed, there will be always room for the testers. Testing is something where nothing is fixed in advance. Suppose, a project comes and tester says that there is no bug found then will it appear lethal? I would strongly say, it will be not a lethal one to opt for the testing team.


Now let us come back to the point, if continuous bugs are coming then it is suggested that don’t fix all bugs, change technology which is in use for the project. How many bugs, you can fix? You will fix one error and 3-4 new will come then? It will become a continuous process so it is always suggested that you should change technology. Keep reading our testing blogs so that you can analyze what exactly need to do for software quality assurance.

What Quality Software Testers Should Pose?

Software testing has been always the first choice for many people to start their career in the software section. People often get confused that do they need any type of specific course for this part of software development. If you want to be in the manual section of software testing then you need to be strong analytically else be ready for script writing. If you are programmer then it is suggested that you should go for the automated section of testing. Scripts like Java Script etc are considered as light programming language so get ready to write some logical statements in computers’ language.


Points you should remember before starting career in the software testing:

·         You should have computer education background
·         If you have completed engineering or MCA then it is a plus point because syllabus of these two courses matches with the nature of software development of software testing.
·         You should be analytically very strong. A tester should pose quality of thinking different from others.    
·         Experience is also very crucial in this section of software testing.
Overall I would  like to say that this section is highly sensitive and one should always take action with extreme care else it may become tough job for people to enter in this niche. It has been seen that many developers have turned into testers while vice versa is also true.
