软件测试员测试报告
Everyone dreams of a fairytale life for themselves, right? I know I definitely did and mine went along the typical lines of finding “The one”, getting married, building a forever house, and having a few kids. But never did I ever think along the lines of a career, what would I actually do in and around all of this? I had no idea. It wasn’t until I was twenty-three that this realisation hit me. I literally had no idea what I wanted to do for a career. A thing that I could totally have alongside the rest of my fairytale. But what did that career look like for me? What was I interested in enough that I could spend forty hours a week doing? And how was I even going to discover my career options?
E veryone梦想自己有童话般的生活，对吗？ 我知道我确实做到了，而我的典型做法是找到“一个”，结婚，盖一个永久的房子，并生几个孩子。 但是我从没考虑过自己的职业生涯，在这一切之中以及周围我该怎么办？ 我不知道。 直到我23岁时，我才意识到这一点。 我真的不知道我想要做什么。 在童话故事的其余部分中，我完全可以拥有一个东西。 但是那个职业对我来说是什么样子？ 我对什么足以使我每周花40个小时做什么感兴趣？ 我什至会如何发现自己的职业选择？
My journey in answering this big question begins back at the beginning of 2016. I’d just landed a part time job at Trade Me as a Customer Service Representative (CSR) while I finished the last year of my Industrial Design degree. Once I finished up my degree later that year I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to do job wise. However, I did know that it wasn’t going to be anything to do with Industrial Design. So to keep things simple I moved to full time hours in my job at Trade Me. I spent the next few months enjoying not being a student, having money to spend, and being able to do a bit of travel overseas.
我回答这个大问题的旅程始于2016年初。我刚刚完成了工业设计学位的最后一年，就在Trade Me担任客户服务代表(CSR)的兼职工作。 当年晚些时候完成学业后，我不太确定自己想做什么。 但是，我确实知道与工业设计没有任何关系。 为了简单起见，我在Trade Me的工作时间转向全职工作。 在接下来的几个月里，我喜欢不做学生，有钱可以花钱，还可以出国旅行。
Life was great and it was fun, but then things changed and after a year and a half in my CSR job I just wasn’t enjoying it anymore. It was at this moment that I had my big realisation. I was twenty three years old and was still holding onto my perfect fairytale life. But what about a job or career. What was I actually going to do with my life in and around everything else?
生活很棒，很有趣，但是后来情况发生了变化，在我的企业社会责任工作一年半之后，我不再享受它了。 正是在这一刻，我实现了自己的梦想。 我当时二十三岁，仍然坚持着自己完美的童话生活。 但是工作或职业呢？ 在其他一切事物中，我实际上与我的生活有什么关系？
It was then August 2017 when I began to work out what I was interested in pursuing as a career. At this point, I knew I enjoyed working at Trade Me, I liked the people that I worked with, and I’d seen the company support people moving into other roles. So I thought, why can’t I do that too?!
那时是2017年8月，我开始研究自己对从事职业感兴趣的东西。 在这一点上，我知道我喜欢在Trade Me工作，喜欢与我一起工作的人，并且看到公司支持人们担任其他职务。 所以我想，为什么我也不能这样做？
I set about having a big think about what role I could potentially move into at Trade Me. I wondered if I could move into a Design role as I’ve got a degree in design and I really enjoyed the graphic design aspect of my studies. Or could I be a Business Analyst as I’m a great knowledge builder, I like to know all of the business rules, and how things work. Or could I be a tester because that ‘Testing for non-testers’ workshop that I went to at work was pretty fun and it’d mean that I’d get to resolve the issues that users always complain to me about in my CSR role.
我开始考虑在Trade Me中可能扮演的角色。 我想知道我是否可以担任设计学位，因为我获得了设计学位，并且我真的很喜欢我学习的图形设计方面。 还是我可以成为一名业务分析师，因为我是一名出色的知识构建者，所以我想了解所有业务规则以及工作原理。 或者我可以成为一名测试人员，因为我上班参加的“面向非测试人员的测试”研讨会非常有趣，这意味着我将解决用户在履行CSR角色时经常向我抱怨的问题。
With my list of potential careers in hand I had a big chat to the Head of Customer Service. He was super into supporting development opportunities even if it was to move out of Customer Service and to somewhere else within the company, which was perfect for me! We popped Software Tester at the top of the list and got started on talking to the right people about the next steps.
掌握了潜在的职业清单后，我与客户服务主管进行了热烈的交谈。 他非常乐于为开发机会提供支持，即使这是要移出客户服务并转移到公司内的其他地方，这对我来说也是完美的！ 我们在列表顶部弹出了Software Tester，并开始与合适的人员讨论下一步。

Then I jumped head first into discovering if a career as a Software Tester was the right fit for me. Previously my evenings and weekends were spent watching Netflix and gaming. Now they were spent:
牛逼母鸡我跳头先入发现，如果一个职业生涯，作为一名软件测试是正确的适合我。 以前，我晚上和周末都在看Netflix和游戏。 现在他们花了：
- Reading up on testing 阅读测试
- Perusing testing blogs 细读测试博客
- Learning (very) basic SQL 学习(非常)基本SQL
- Logging Trade Me site bugs that either myself or members found 记录本人或成员发现的Trade Me网站错误
- Practicing testing by comparing my draft test plans against the already finished test plans on stories/cases 通过将我的测试计划草案与故事/案例中已经完成的测试计划进行比较来进行测试
- Becoming the CSR go-to person in incidents on production 在生产事件中成为企业社会责任专家
Then at work, I was lucky enough to get to spend an hour or two a week sitting with different testers from around the business for a ‘shadow session’. This meant I could actually see what they did in their day to day work and gave me the opportunity to do ‘actual’ testing of the cases that were being developed.
然后在工作中，我很幸运能够每周花一两个小时与来自企业周围的不同测试人员一起参加“影子会议”。 这意味着我实际上可以看到他们在日常工作中所做的事情，并给了我机会对正在开发的案例进行“实际”测试。
I soon realised that the testing role included a bunch of things that I enjoy like problem solving, understanding how things work, technical stuff, collaborating with others, building cool stuff and a bunch of other stuff — I was totally keen for a career in testing!
我很快意识到测试角色包括很多我喜欢的事情，例如解决问题，了解事情的工作方式，技术知识，与他人合作，构建很棒的知识以及很多其他东西–我完全热衷于从事测试工作！
The next step in my journey was to kick off this whole career thing and get a new and shiny Software Tester job! Since I had little to no experience of actual testing this was going to prove somewhat tough.
吨他在我的旅程的下一步是揭开序幕这个整个职业生涯的事情，得到一个新的和有光泽的软件测试人员的工作！ 由于我几乎没有实际测试的经验，因此这将变得有些困难。
On my way to landing my first role I went through a few ups and downs. The first two roles that I applied for internally within Trade Me had preferred candidates and so I unfortunately didn’t get those ones. However, I did learn a whole lot from going through the process for those roles. I gained experience in interviewing for a Software Tester role, in doing a technical test, and I made some people connections which would come in handy soon enough.
在担任第一个角色的过程中，我经历了一些起伏。 我在Trade Me内部申请的前两个职位是首选候选人，因此很遗憾，我没有得到这些职位。 但是，我确实从完成这些角色的过程中学到了很多东西。 我在面试软件测试员角色，进行技术测试方面获得了经验，并且我建立了一些人脉关系，很快就会派上用场。
Then came the moment that I landed the perfect job in April 2018. Word had gotten around that I was super keen on moving into a testing role and that I’d be the perfect fit for an upcoming role. I very soon became the preferred candidate — who me? Yes me!
牛逼母鸡来的那一刻，我登陆了完美的工作在2018年四月Word中已经得到了各地，我是超级热衷于进入一个测试角色，我会为即将到来的角色的完美契合。 我很快成为首选候选人-我是谁？ 是我！
A few days went past where I went through the process of having a few chats with the hiring manager, and then the role was advertised internally asking for expressions of interests from others. Then, finally in the space of less than a week of having been approached about the role I was given a job offer! I’d finally met my goal and was all set to start my new and exciting job in just a few weeks time — I was so excited!
几天过去了，我经历了与招聘经理进行几场聊天的过程，然后在内部刊登了该职位的广告，以征求其他人的兴趣表达。 然后，终于在不到一周的时间里就被任命了我！ 我终于实现了我的目标，并准备在短短几周内开始我的新工作，这真是太激动了！
Finally in May 2018 I started my shiny new role as a Software Tester at Trade Me. Right from the day one I loved it and the role ended up being so much more than I expected. I got too:
˚Finally 2018年5月，我开始我的闪亮的新角色作为一个软件测试人员在交易我。 从第一天开始，我就爱上了它，而这个角色最终比我期望的要多得多。 我也有：
- Test a whole range of things across the full stack and more 在整个堆栈中测试整个事物，以及更多
- Own the deploy process from test through to production 拥有从测试到生产的部署过程
- Work with a bunch of amazing people across a few different agile squads 与几个不同的敏捷团队中的一群很棒的人一起工作
- Be involved in the product side of projects 参与项目的产品方面
- Learn about and build automation tests 了解并构建自动化测试

It’s all worked out perfectly and I’ve found a job that I actually enjoy doing everyday. It also challenges me and has given me so many opportunities to learn and develop in a bunch of different areas — it’s fabulous!
一切都完美地完成了，我找到了我真正喜欢每天做的工作。 这也给我带来了挑战，并给了我很多机会，可以在很多不同的领域中学习和发展，这真是太好了！
So now at twenty five years old I’ve answered my first big life question and added an amazing career aspect to my fairytale. Now it’s just a case of seeing how the rest of it will pan out. Or maybe other parts of it will change slightly too? Who knows at this point but either way I’m excited to see what the future holds for me!
因此，现在25岁的时候，我已经回答了我的第一个人生大问题，并为我的童话故事增加了惊人的职业生涯。 现在只是看看其余部分将如何发展的一种情况。 也许它的其他部分也会略有变化？ 谁知道这一点，但是无论哪种方式，我都很高兴看到未来对我而言充满了希望！
