Reader Questions:

『Hello Ah Chang, as a test, can you talk about the value of testers?』

A Chang replied:

Many friends are troubled by this problem. Ah Chang will share his views. I think the value of testers is mainly reflected in the following four aspects:

1. Add confidence to the product launch

Only after testing and verification by testers will the product and R&D believe that this product release is a reliable release, and the entire project team will be panicked when it is directly put into production without testing and verification.

2. Requirement review, help products sort out logic

Testers are sometimes more familiar with the overall business logic of the platform than the product. When the product proposes a new requirement, the tester can help the product sort out the existing business logic and help the product judge new businessWhether the requirements are reasonable and whether there is a conflict with the existing business logic.

3. Write use cases to help developers sort out requirements

Testers write test cases before R&D and submit tests, and deduplicate, merge, and refine the test points in the requirement document. Sometimes the logic not covered in the requirement document, the testerIt will be supplemented in test cases to help R&D sort out requirements and avoid introducing unnecessary defects in the design and coding stage.

4. Major bugs were found during testing

During the testing process, the testers found some serious bugs that blocked the process, avoided online risks and avoided huge losses for the company.

A Chang thought:

Testers are also very important in the process of software development. Don't ignore their own value, and testers are constantly growing and progressing, so in addition to the above values, testers will definitely have more.As for the value of mining, Ah Chang only listed four common values ​​here.
