The next generation tester! 1 To Softec – Silicon India attendees With love, Pradeep Soundararajan Moolya Software Testing Private Limited / Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

Agenda for my talk Not to change you (So, feel safe and relaxed) Not to say, I am better than you. (So, feel a lot safer) Not to bore you (intentionally, I mean) Not to waste your time ( really not ) Not too many slides (just 16) Maybe I could talk things that might interest you. Not sure though 2 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

If I am smart, it is not only because of me, the people with whom I associate matter and they are… Jerry Weinberg, Cem Kaner, James Bach, Michael Bolton, Jon Bach, Ben Simo, Thomas Alva Edison, Vishnusharma, Birbal, Vipul Kocher, Parimala Shankaraiah, Sharath Byregowda, Shrini Kulkarni, Santhosh Tuppad, Edward De Bono, Malcom Gladwell, Mohan Panguluri, the Weekend Testing folks, the Context Driven Testing folks, the AYE conference folks, the BWST folks, the Writing about Testing folks, folks at STC & TR, LinkedIn ST&QA group … 3 Acknowledgements!

What is happening in Area 51? 4 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

Next gen tool : 1 This tool is called the “Quick Code Pro” This tool can write code faster than developers. This tool can write same code more than once. This tool can write code for bug fixes. This tool can do the job of several hundred programmers in just five seconds. This tool license is less expensive than hiring developers. 5 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

The next, next gen tool : 2 This tool is called “iRitational Test Manager Robot” This tool can take faster decisions than your manager. This tool assesses the risk of a product faster than a few test managers put together They are cheaper than hiring a test manager They are tester friendly ( reduces attrition ) 6 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

The next, next, next gen tool : 3 This tool is called “Auto CEO” This tool does the strategy This tool understands the change needed to bring in to be able to remain competitive in the market. This tool is much inexpensive compared to hiring and retaining a CEO You can have an updated version every three months. Very simple to operate: Just record one day of what your CEO does and replay it several times across the week. 7 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

If all that sounded funny? How about this? XYZ test automation tool reduces the test cycle execution time by >50% XYZ tool can run tests that humans can, just record and play how many ever times you want. XYZ tool can work out to be cheaper over a longer period. ( cheaper compared to hiring humans ) The people you need in your organization is not the one who knows how to test but operators of XYZ Write a robotic script that humans need to perform, then automate it and call it “test automation” 8 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

Practically stupid! Why did automating CEO work sound funny and stupid? Why did automating programmers work sound funny and stupid? Why doesn’t automating testers testing work sound funny and stupid? 9 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

The traps that current generation testing folks are in The “difference between” trap. The “nothing but” trap The “google teaches me everything” trap The “experience teaches me everything” trap The “manual testing” trap The “being paid enough” trap The “all izz well” trap The “tool means automation tool” trap 10 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

The next generation tester is… BRAINUAL tester! 11 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :

Here is an example of what the next generation tester would think Would see there is a difference between “checks” and “tests”. Would invest time automating “checks” and leave human brains to do the “tests” Would focus on things beyond functional coverage. Would interview people by asking the candidates to test than asking the difference between that and this. Would work on developing brain skills such as “Lateral thinking”, “Creative thinking” and read books of Malcom Gladwell, Edward De Bono… Would learn testing from someone who actually practices and research it. Would see a tool not as just what it can but how else it can be used to derive value Would remain hands on Would practice testing outside of work Would see testing as a brain activity and not as a work of hands. 12 Copyrights Moolya Software Testing Private Limited :
