The future of the software tester role
Silvia Nuñez – SQS Marketing Manager
The Future of Testing is a subject always, in some way, discussed at QA&TEST. What will the future bring in our profession? Some people make quite negative prediction but others consider that, as the development of software continues to evolve, so will the testing, trying to continue providing the added value that it gives today.
We understand that the future will change methods; the role of the tester will be different, etc. We recommend reading these two articles addressing this issue and we invite you to discuss with us your perceptions about the future of our profession. How do you consider the future of testing, and particularly our role as testers in it? What characteristics do you consider that a tester should have to continue adding value to their work in the future?
