Blogger of the Month Program by QA Talks Community (QAT) - BLOG 3: Get to know about — ISTQB CTFL-AT

As a reader, if you are into the Software Testing domain then probably (or) rather for sure you might have already heard about ISTQB (International Software Testing Qualification Board) Certifications for Software Testers. Today I would like to share some interesting and insightful information about ISTQB-CTFL-AT Certification.

Blogger of the Month Program by QA Talks Community (QAT) - BLOG 2: API and API Testing — A Walkthrough

Before I tasted the flavor of API and API Testing from the different flavors of Software Testing in the current tech world, API sounded like a kind of a complex puzzle to me.

Today I use this term so often that I started to relate APIs with the real world day-to-day activities ๐Ÿ˜€, OK so now let’s dive into our topic for today, many have a vague or incorrect idea about what this fairly common term API means. So I would like to share an interesting overview of what is this API all about.

#21days21tips - 2022 powered by The Test Chat Community - My Collection

 

DAY 1

I am joining hands with The Test Chat Community towards their #21days21tips initiative


Here's my #Day1 tip


Document even little things at work. Taking note of minor things will enable a fruitful habit of noting down the question that seemed substantial to you, also this will at part later help in showcasing things that were missed, undefined, or any critical topics.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day1 #tipoftheday

DAY 2

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day2 tip


Agile Testing is about team spirit, collaboration, and effort. Maintaining a no-blame environment always allows the team to be more open to learning and encourages them to invest time in enhancing one's skillset.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day2 #tipoftheday

DAY 3

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day3 tip


While designing the Test Strategy it's always good to collaborate with developers. Having a good communication line with developers during Test Strategy design can do wonders for making the testing smooth, this will help to share effective ideas in the kick start phase.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day3 #tipoftheday

DAY 4

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day4 tip


Don’t just rely on written communication, while working with people from different parts of the world (i.e virtual team), many a time written communication causes misunderstandings, have a good practice of taking up calls and scheduling meetings this can make things work faster.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day4 #tipoftheday

DAY 5

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day5 tip


Instead of spending time writing many test cases, focus on writing productive test cases. At times we Testers are more fascinated to run a lot of Testcases during our execution time, but rather than that let's write limited yet more effective Testcases and make are Test Execution worth it. 


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day5 #tipoftheday

DAY 6

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day6 tip - Take your time, never hurry up in Testing.


At times we might feel that the testing can be done quickly, but the point here is will it hold that amount of quality in your testing? A simple requirement that needs to be tested might require the most creative thinking, so always don't rush yourself, use your time productively.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day6 #tipoftheday


DAY 7

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day7 tip


Always make sure to put yourself in the target user’s shoes and think about how you would use the product while you're testing.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day7 #tipoftheday


DAY 8

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day8 tip


While rasing BUGS keep it detailed and clear. Lack of clarity leads to misunderstanding and slows down the debugging process. Also, make sure to describe your bugs meaningfully in simple words.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day8 #tipoftheday


DAY 9

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day9 tip


Your Test Preparation should always start by spending some time exploring the software. Make a habit of preparing some graphical models on the features and requirements to be tested, this will likely help you to uncover features that you may not be aware of.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day9 #tipoftheday


DAY 10

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day10 tip


We Testers are not always meant to just report the bugs, be the change - try to troubleshoot the root cause of the failure this will eventually lead you to the solution of the problem. The team you work with will be benefited from this and you in turn will be respected if you not only log the bugs but also provide solutions.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day10 #tipoftheday


DAY 11

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day11 tip


While Testing make a practice to note down the new concepts you learn, track your testing progress, make note of the testing observations. This habit will help you to provide a clear test summary report at the later part of the Testing phase.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day11 #tipoftheday


DAY 12

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day12 tip

DAY 16

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day16 tip 


The habit of reading is one of the best qualities that a person can possess. Try to inbuilt this habit, read as many books, blogs, articles, news related to software testing and its trends.

Be passionate about what you do. A Passionate person will always have something unique to contribute to whatever work he/she does. Also being passionate can spread positivity around the people you engage with. 


So let's be passionate about what we do and create a similar vibe among others.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day17 #tipoftheday

DAY 18

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day18 tip


Have a habit of maintaining a common personal repository for capturing all your Test Deliverables. It’s good practice to keep all of your important resources in one place in your personal drive at work. You might need to revisit them later for some valid reason or to retrospect the work later.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day18 #tipoftheday


DAY 19

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day19 tip


Provide continuous feedback about the health of the application under test. When issues are reported early, they can be fixed faster. If the feedback loop is delayed it becomes more difficult and time-consuming to identify the root cause of the issue. This is an important objective of testing in an agile environment.


#testing #thetestchat #21days21tips #day19 #tipoftheday

DAY 20

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Here's my #Day20 tip


Test cases are an important part of the software testing process. Writing clear test cases, much like writing clear bug reports is very important.

DAY 21

#21days21tips initiative by The Test Chat Community


Today marks the last day for the super cool initiative by The Test Chat Community, it was a fun and learning experience being a part of it. Got to collect many useful tips from amazing people from different communities, this even opened doors for networking with new buddies. Thankful to The Test Chat Community for enabling this.


Now to end up, Here's my #Day21 tip - Learning is a never-ending process


To have an unquenchable thirst for learning, you’d need to look at yourself before and compare it with how you are right now. Is there anything you’ve done in the past year that seemed stupid and wrong, or you found to be really difficult, but now it’s easy? If you can’t answer these questions, chances are that you’re not learning enough, in that scenario try to infuse learning into your everyday life, “Be a student. Always.” 


“Never stop to learn and never learn to stop.” Continuously strive to learn new things and never be contented with what you know. 


Happy Learning ๐Ÿ˜Š Happy Testing ๐Ÿ˜Š
