Software Testing Training With Placement Opportunities
Career in Software Testing
Testing accounts for almost 30 percent of the software development market. The global testing market is estimated to be a $13 billion industry. With the boom of the third party software testing business, the need for quality and trained manpower has become a critical issue in the industry.
Software testing has been closely associated with development until a few years ago. Now software testing as a career is evolving rapidly and the profile of a successful tester is remarkably different from that of a successful developer. As testing gains more prominence, a generic career road map for software testing is likely to be established in the years to come.
The supply is not at par with the demand due to the paucity of professional testers in UK, and lack of awareness about testing as a career.
Software testing cannot be considered as an alternative to software development. Testing and development require different profiles. People working in these fields undertake different types of training. The approach to work is also different and testing can be treated as a separate career path.
