Here is just a small piece of information for all QA in my connections: Whenever the Interviewer asks you the following: What are the different forms of testing you have performed? Don't Answer these: 1. I have done functional and non-functional testing 2. I have performed smoke, sanity, and regression testing. 3. I have performed both manual and automation testing Rather answer like a pro: 1. I have performed smoke, sanity, and regression testing as a part of functional testing and performed performance, load, and stress testing as non-functional testing, moreover as a QA I have come across multiple forms of manual testing such as Cross-Browser testing, Accessibility testing, etc(that you have performed). 2. If a person has worked as an Automation QA, do mention all the sorts of automation testing you have done such as:- I have started my automation testing journey with Selenium Java combination then implemented TestNG and used Maven as a build automation tool, and currently as our organization focuses on latest technology so I am learning the importance of Playwright and Cypress. There are more ways of answering different sets of questions the interviewer asks you and you can get better by learning more about testing and the QA domain but the most important point for a QA is to express their answers in a more descriptive way not to impress the interviewer but for yourself to bring out the self-confidence in this domain #testing #interviewquestions #qaanalyst
