Testers best Tool-Programmer.
This days many people are so concerned about using automation tools and thus miss the fundamental tool that a tester can always depend on.Yes ,i mean a programmer.i think the best way to gain some good knowledge about testing is to interact with programmer at right time.start a conversation and thus bring good testing on board.The following paragraphs can be helpful for a tester in getting some nuggets of info that can be useful.There might be much more but all it depends on how well a tester communicates and frame his requirements to a programmer.He can also save lot of time with right communication and right demands .The might be some noteworthy tips and tricks that can help a tester with heuristics,oracles and test coverage he performs with the app under test.
Programmer insight about the the system he is building is limited .He is concerned about his component that he is building.He tries to understand the system.Keeping this in mind,a tester must report the bugs in such a way that programmers understands and appreciate test reporting.It is necessary for a tester to give simple steps for failure reachable and explain with good faith about things which are not easy to report.
Good Communication with programmer to understand process work flows,product architecture,process architecture,priority based features could be helpful for a tester.There can be some excellent rapport that can be build if a programmer and tester identify some future failure with the help of this documents.Programmer often work with buggy tools,third party api,components that might be very hard to use,regular spec updates.This all add to programmer woes and a tester has to keep this in context and follow right communication protocol in getting information necessary for his work or reporting his work.It might also be of useful for a tester to identify the problem areas in the those; that will have impact on the app that programmer is working.A tester can help programmer and also help his testing in a way.
There might be some ways in which a tester can help programmer such as by creating some test environments for him,review third part apis,report some bugs in the third part components or api that programmer uses.This will help a tester for his future course of testing.All the above points can bring competence and integrity for a tester
