It has been engaged in the functional test of 10K to the test development of 40W annual salary for 5 years, and spent 7 days sorting out the super comprehensive learning route

do IT Of all know , This line is very technical . And the technology update iteration is very fast , I can't keep up with the rhythm , There will be many problems in practical work , This is a chain reaction . therefore , To get a foothold in this business , We must always pay attention to the update of technology , Stay awake , Keep learning .

Like many people , I started my testing career by doing the most basic work . Click the mouse every day , It's easy , The salary was very good for me who was just out of the society at that time . And the company was also favored by the leaders at that time , Just joined the company , Familiarity with the business is quick , I have a good command of my work , At that time, I could play the test cases very smoothly in a short time .

That's it , Time flies by , It will be almost two years in a twinkling of an eye , I suddenly realized that , After two years , In addition to being familiar with the business process of the product and being proficient in testing the workflow specification , Improved efficiency , Make the work a little easier , No other gains . On the contrary, it becomes more and more idle every day , I seem to have experienced “ Boiling frog ” The feeling of . I began to reflect on myself , Realize that you must wake up if you want to continue in this business , Take time to learn , Enrich your own technology stack .

Learning automated testing

The initial idea was to use a lot of free time , Devote yourself to your study . however , The content of learning must be based on your own work , In this way, we can turn the learned technology into work experience . At that time, automated testing became more and more popular , So I want to learn automated testing first , And due to the adjustment of the company's business framework , Start doing automated testing projects , The company has recruited many automation test bosses , I also learned a lot from them .

To learn automated testing, you must first choose a programming language ,Java or python Fine , I chose python, because Python It's especially suitable for test engineers who are weak in programming ,Python It can also be used for crawling , use Python I can also write some timing scripts , Database script , Very efficient .

use Python Language and Selenium To try automated testing . At that time , About Python Version of Selenium There is not much , While studying, I began to publish relevant blogs .

Communication is the driving force for learning new technologies , Most of the time, the reason why it is difficult for us to keep learning a new technology is the lack of feedback , Whether it's internal sharing or community communication, it's a good feedback mechanism .

Later, due to the project , Start using Robot Framework The test framework , Because of it Python The basis of , So I soon understood Robot Framework How frame works , And can develop system keywords according to the needs of the project .

Mastering the principle of automatic tools will make you more comfortable to use , And this also requires you to have a certain programming foundation . Move back APP Become popular , I studied for another month appium Automation tools , But I didn't use it at work, and then I didn't continue .

later , I started writing... For another community project Web UI automated testing , For months before and after , Accumulated some experience , Start trying to design Web Automation framework , At that time, it was mainly aimed at Selenium API Encapsulation .

Test Development

My friend recommended me to a financial company to do test development , Responsible for developing customized test quality platform of the company .

This is a challenge for me , New areas , Test development is very popular in first tier cities . The treatment at that time was better than at the beginning 、 Intermediate development engineer should be high . When you arrive at the post, you just resist the pressure , Continuous system learning test development skills , And learn for use . The technology architecture adopts the front and back end sharing , Include Python Back end development framework based on XML Flask, The front frame vue,elementUI Components etc.

I have been doing test development for several years , Real experience that test development is equal to the work of the whole test cycle , Including familiar with product function and business , Requirement design of test platform , Research and development of the front and back end of the platform , Self test of platform , To test the promotion of dozens of people 、 Use of training products 、 operating .

So the premise of test development is rich experience in functional testing , Interface automation ,UI Very skilled in automation , Otherwise, it is very difficult to carry out test development work .

If you are also moving towards automated test development

At the right age , Select the appropriate position , Try to give full play to your advantages .

My path to automated testing , I can't leave the plan of each stage all the way , Because I like planning and summarizing , So the following 【 Automatic test engineer learning route 】, It will give you inspiration and direction , In addition, I have found a lot of test friends now , Made an exchange group , Shared a lot 【 Supporting video tutorial 】 And technical documentation . If you don't want to experience self-study, you can't find resources , No one answers the question , The feeling of giving up after a few days , You can click on the 【 Portal 】 Join us to communicate ：

1. Automated testing is a must Python Programming content

If you don't want to grow up alone , Full resource not found , The problem is not helped , If you insist on giving up after a few days , You can click on the 【 Portal 】 Join us , We can discuss and exchange , There will be various software testing materials and technical exchanges .

There must be a way , Then there is success . Finally, I wish you all a satisfactory offer ~

Today is mainly to share my learning route and video resources , In the future, I will share more tutorials about software testing resources , There are friends who are helped , You can pay attention and praise ~
