Preface

test / Developers ,30 While standing , Do you feel confused ？

In the programmer circle , There has always been a saying , Programmers eat youth food . In this group , Many are here 30 year , Or not yet 30 The 20-year-old developer felt confused about the future development , Of course, it is also possible that some people have not thought about this problem .

30 Year old , You may be faced with taking a wife and having children 、 Facing mortgage and car loan ;30 Year old , You need to face competition 、 Face the choice , Facing the ever-changing technology . When you feel confused , And where to go ？

Change your mind
The sense of crisis
Maybe when you feel confused , It's a good thing . Prove that you also have a sense of crisis , Instead of being confused . Be aware of the crisis , In order to have a better motivation to plan and adjust . As a programmer , at ease , From nine to five , There must be something wrong . And we often have been in the same company for a long time , It is also easy to become a frog cooked in warm water , Go to work every day and do your job well , And then day after day . gradually , Confusion followed

Work for yourself
Most people may have a very serious problem . That is to think that I have been working for the company . In fact, everyone should work for himself . Almost no one has been in a company for a long time , No company is willing to pay for an employee who doesn't contribute , Although you may be an old employee . For myself , You should always keep yourself competitive , That's the most important thing . We should think about how to improve our skills 、 How to grow better at work 、 How to make better products .

from now on
Analyze your own shortcomings
Arrange your study plan scientifically and reasonably , Supplement according to its own technology stack and shortcomings , To effectively improve themselves .

For example, their basic knowledge is weak , You may need to plan to supplement the underlying algorithm 、 data structure 、 Computer theory 、 Network communication 、 English and other knowledge .

For example, the technical depth is not enough , Every day is just a pile of repetition API, You may need to learn more about the system source code 、 The framework source code 、 Performance optimization and other knowledge

Such as communication and interpersonal relations , As a programmer , Dealing with machines all day , They often neglect their own communication and interpersonal relationships , A project is sometimes more than technology to solve the problem

For example, the technical breadth is not enough , It is necessary to understand and master the new technical points in the industry in a timely manner

Sum up , You need to find out your own shortcomings first , This is the most important step to start

draw up a plan
Technology is fragmented , Never finish learning . According to their own development plan , Consciously supplement your own weakness .

So it is very important to have a clear goal . Basic knowledge , As a necessary element , It requires daily drip accumulation to have obvious effect . However, the related technology stack needs to have a trade-off .

So we need to make a long-term plan and a phased plan . Identifying those skills requires daily persistence , Bit by bit accumulation , For example, the accumulation of some basic knowledge . Those are the ones that can bear fruit if they are tackled in stages . Make an annual plan 、 Monthly plan 、 Plan weekly , To make up for your weakness .

Summary and output
In fact, most people may have an experience , Is to read a book or learn a skill , It may be forgotten after a while . So I have a study plan , For better consolidation , We need to summarize periodically .

note ： Whether it's reading books or learning some blogs by yourself , You can take some key points and essence as your notes , Can be better understood and easy to review
Blog ： Blog for a long time , You can better sublimate your notes , At the same time, it is also used as a supervision of their own learning , Set yourself a goal , For example, one article per week .
application ： New skills and knowledge to be learned , Find a fit , Apply it to your own projects . You can also try to open source some examples yourself 、 Kuo et al .

Maybe you will relax for a while , But timely adjustment is very important .

Persistence may be a lifetime thing , Giving up is a moment .

30 Year old , Maybe I don't know if I will be confused , But at least keep learning well every day , You can enrich yourself , No regrets .

Maybe when you are making progress every day , Growing every day , The confusion will go with it

Here's what I did 2022 The most complete software testing engineer in the year learned the knowledge architecture diagram

One 、Python Introduction to programming to mastery

Two 、 Interface automation project practice

3、 ... and 、Web Automation project practice

Four 、App Automation project practice

5、 ... and 、 Resume of the first-line big factory

6、 ... and 、 Test Development DevOps system

7、 ... and 、 Common automated testing tools

8、 ... and 、JMeter Performance testing

Nine 、 summary

The only thing in the world that can be obtained without any effort is poverty , The only thing that can come out of nothing is a dream , There is nothing that can be achieved without hands . The world is cruel , But as long as you are willing to go , There is always a way ！

The more people you understand , The fewer people understand you ; The view of most ordinary people , Are not the closest to success , Because most people's horizons and levels have not reached that level .
