1.Test to Break: This attitude is very important for a
tester, Test to Break attitude can be developed by negative
thinking that a application break, hyper sensitivity towards
smallest of small details regarding requirement.
2.Good observer: Tester should be having an attitude of
paying attention even to the minutest details. For e.g.
Sentence related to copyright act is missing or copyright
symbol is missing will be creating a huge impact to web
application when in live.
3. Positive attitude: Positive attitude for find issues
and bugs is important of a tester.
4. Requirement understanding: Tester should have the
capability of understand the customers and end user’s point
of view.
5.Diplomacy: Tester should be diplomatic while
communicating an bug or an issue to developer. Bug or issue
should be communicated to developer in such a way that it
does not hurt their ego and should not be offensive because
of fact that even they lot of their hard work to develop an
application and tester tell its not proper.
6.Communication: Tester should have good and effective
communication to different sections of people technical
(developers) and non-technical (customers) and ability to
understand various sides of an issue.
7.Judgment skills: Judgment skills are needed to assess
high-risk areas of an application on which to focus testing
efforts when time is limited.
8. Ability to find problems: An ability of to find
problem is also one of the important skills which can be
developed by paying attention to details and comparing with
requirements.
9.Software development life cycle knowledge: Knowledge
about entire software development process and how it can fit
into the business approach and goals of the organization.
10.Tolerance to chaos: Testers have to be flexible and
be able to drop things when blocked and move on to another
thing that’s not blocked. Testers always have many
(unfinished) irons in the fire. In this respect, good
testers differ from programmers. A compulsive need to
achieve closure is not a bad attribute in a
programmer-certainly serves them well in debugging-in
testing, it means nothing gets finished. The testers’ world
is inherently more chaotic than the programmers’.
11.Honesty: Testers are fundamentally honest and
incorruptible. They’ll compromise if they have to, but
they’ll righteously agonize over it. This fundamental
honesty extends to a brutally realistic understanding of
their own limitations as a human being. They accept the idea
that they are no better and no worse, and therefore no less
error-prone than their programming counterparts. So they
apply the same kind of self-assessment procedures that good
programmers will. They’ll do test inspections just like
programmers do code inspections. The greatest possible crime
in a tester’s eye is to fake test results.
