How long does it take to learn software testing in Chongqing?

Software testing and Java development training are different. Some bad training institutions always instill the misconception that "getting started in software testing is easy and the salary is high" to career changers.

They often say:

1. If your foundation is poor, just learn to take a test.

2. If your logical thinking is not strong enough, take a test.

3. If you don’t have strong academic qualifications and are a liberal arts student, you must learn to take tests.

They will also tell you: learning testing does not require any technical ability, and you do not need to work too much overtime to do testing. Moreover, the salary in the testing industry is not lower than that in development, and the development prospects are equally good.

In fact?

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with what they said, but if you only learn simple functional testing, you do not need any technical skills, but your salary after working for 3 years and working for 10 years is basically the same (of course, (On the premise that you don’t learn new technologies), and the elimination rate is extremely high.

So what’s the point of spending money and time to participate in this kind of training that has no technical content?

If you don’t want to be deceived by these unscrupulous training institutions, and you don’t want to be just an ordinary software tester, but want to become a test engineer with more development prospects, then you must be sure when choosing a training institution. Consider the following points:

1. Course selection should not just simply learn functional testing, but should cover the popular automated testing, GUI testing, interface testing and performance test development; < /p>

2. The teaching of training institutions is not just about teaching you how to do standard software testing, but also teaching you some testing logic and teaching you how to use tools without relying on these tools to complete automated testing. It is the underlying working principle behind it. These things can truly be internalized into your personal core competitiveness.

3. Today’s mobile Internet companies have a very large demand for automated testing, and they also require students to master the principles of programming. Therefore, comprehensive testing and development talents are the future demand direction of the IT industry.

4. Be sure to participate in a trial study, because many people have unclear goals and are even confused, so go to a trial study for a week to see if you really want to do technology, or are suitable for technology.

5. Teaching methods, some are face-to-face and some are video-based, each has its own advantages, it just depends on which one you like. Of course, the tuition fees for offline teaching should be higher. After all, the cost is there. When you study, you have teachers watching over you and classmates accompanying you, so you can get into the learning state faster and have more fighting spirit.
