Why did u choose testing why not developing...

Answer / rima

a tester should be thorough with the entire functionalities
of the application to be tested n this allows him to know
about different types of application developed in defferent
environments.A single developer might be developing just a
minute part of the entire application n he may not be aware
of the application as a whole.In this case I felt a
tester's role is more interesting.

Secondly, the most important is not just to develope
something but to develope things with HIGH quality. That
takes the role of a tester to a different level.

N definitly i will be proud to say I found a critical bug n
that bug has been fixed.

the fields even some basic concepts in
programming.knowledge will be wider when we do testing,but
it well be narrow while doing programming.
