一直在想测试界的榜样是什么样的。网上看到一篇介绍微软的Principle SDET(在测试技术道路上的牛人)的文章,现摘录如下:

1997年加入微软做测试,其间换过三个team
他的工作建议:
1.Possesses in-depth product knowledge AND is big picture expert as well
2.Most of the time works in pro-active mode (anticipates rather than reacts)
3.Able to generate support from others in order to achieve the desired outcome (impact and influence) 4.Understands the business
5.Demonstrates strong leadership skills
从他们的工作建议中可以看到,他们除了具备强大的专业技术能力以外,很多职业素质也都是相似的。我想正是他们这些相似的职业素质才能够让他们共同走上牛人的道路。
