What does it mean to participate in the planned version and iterative version test in the recruitment information of "software testing engineer"

Take the test. Don't say you don't know what software testing is ... that's dead. ...

"Participating in version testing" can also be understood as not unit testing, not integration testing, but version testing.

"participate in the testing of the planned version and the iterative version", that is, participate in the testing of both versions.

If you don't understand anything above, I will write a book for you.

The only thing that may be unclear in this sentence is what is a planned version and what is an iterative version.

These two concepts are used in agile development (also used in other development patterns, the two concepts are the same).

Let's talk about the planned version, which is generally considered as the big stage and the last software version. More than a year and a half, as a unit, there are several years.

Iterative version is a small stage, because agile development requires every minimum stage, and the incorporated code must ensure the usability of the current compiled version, so this usability has to be tested, that is, iterative version, usually one week (or two weeks) and one month long. This small stage development process is called iterative process.

It is also a version test. What's the difference between the planned version and the iterative version? Because the iterative version is released very quickly, it is impossible to completely test all the contents in one iteration, so the iterative version testing is focused, and the iteration focuses on the modified and newly developed contents, and pays less attention to the unmodified contents.

The planned version test is a comprehensive and fine-grained integrity test.
