Posted By : Reena Chungade | 31-May-2018

Being a great QA does not involve only having the Testing knowledge, there is a list of other aspects as well which need to be looked into. Let us explore various other versatile attributes which can help one to excel in the field of testing.


Communication is the Key

Some people just like to communicate and talk to people. For a tester, communication is an important skill. The conversation that you have is an important contribution to the effectiveness of your test. The way you communicate, it shows a lot about you and the company you represent. Being a great reporter, you work in a positive way in every way while working for both the person and the company.
This will give people respect and your test will benefit. Still, it is creating better relationships with your colleagues and stakeholders.
If relations are strong, people are willing to give their time and more cooperation. Collaboration is a key component for a successful delivery. In addition, there is something to encourage the counselor networking on both internal and external events. Those who enjoy communicating naturally, they will emerge while doing so.


Hearing is not same as Listening

People can listen to each other for the endless duration. For some people, this is also their idea of fun. Some enjoy learning about others and finding out what they have to say. This is so important skill as a tester. Do not encourage conversations and people want to hear what you have to say, you can not miss important information by listening to it, or you can not even get it in the first place. The more we hear, the more information we can collect.
It also contributes to good relations, it is easy during listening. Apart from this, you can also learn from the people around you and those people whom you hear easily and soak whatever they know. There is infinite knowledge to learn in the test, the more you do, the better and more experienced testers you can become.


Patience is the KEY

Patience is required for many reasons to be a tester. Like when we search for things and may need to wait for fixes. Sometimes we need to remove the obstructions or provide solutions to complex issues. Access to those solutions requires patience. Many projects involve very complex systems that take time to understand and learn to work with different people or complex processes.

In all these developments, patience takes time to overcome difficulties and achieve successful delivery. There are people who have a lot of patience, maybe even without feeling how much. We see it every day around us because people are able to handle the situation of the test in everyday life.

 

Curiosity 

There are people who have the natural desire to ask and analyze everything. It can be used positively in the test. A great tester has the ability to accept the result or to have the result, rather than analyzing and questioning. To solve the problem effectively, you should be able to analyze and ask the right questions. It separates great testers. Curiosity is important.


To able to see other's perspective
Some people are naturally sympathetic creatures. It is an essential part of being a tester, who can put himself in other people's shoes and can see things from different perspectives. It also helps you understand the user and can lead more in-depth and efficient testing. Understanding human conversations in being a good tester is an important force. Testing is not just a robotic process, there is a lot of it and empathy can positively contribute to your test.

Despite being able to read people's faces and see their reactions, they have a great skill without them too. Its team can have a positive effect on mobility because they can understand their partners and how others can feel. As a result, there can be a happy team, so a more effective team with cooperation and strong foundation.


Productive As Opposed To Busy

People often have resources. They are resourceful in their personal and home life, sometimes without feeling it. This skill is transferable for testing and is very useful.To be an agnostic tool, it means that you need a resource to do research, or knowledge is needed to be able to choose the most suitable tools and to get the knowledge. This project can vary greatly from project to project because each project is personal. If these people do not have what they need to achieve, then they are trying to fulfill it, they will source it. Doing so, they shop and find the best tool for the job.

The tools and the way you get close to things, they can separate the average tester from a great one. While doing some tests you may not be familiar or may need more knowledge, you should also have the resources to fill and learn those knowledge gaps. Either you have to learn the most time and cost-effectively to find a way to talk to or learn the right people.


Summary

In our daily life, some individuals have acquired or have properties already that they should be brought to work. Most people are unaware that doing so can contribute to making them more successful in their careers. As discussed, they are particularly relevant for a test role. These qualities and skills can separate someone as a magnificent and effective tester.
They are often overlooked by both the office bearers and those entering the area. Many people are unaware of opportunities in a technical discipline and their daily skills can bring a lot of value to these areas. It is important that we increase awareness about the opportunities available to these aspects and people. If you are considering a career in testing and these qualities are already in you, then the test can be right for you!
