# QA Mindset |
||||
|
||||
As a Quality Assurance Engineer, your primary responsibility is to nurture a proactive, quality-centric, and holistic mindset throughout the organization. This involves promoting the understanding that quality is not solely the responsibility of the QA chapter, or achieved through manual testing alone, but rather a shared commitment that requires collaboration from all team members. Quality should be seamlessly integrated into every phase of the software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering to deployment and maintenance. Your role is to take initiative, provide guidance, and lead the company in adopting best practices and methodologies that prioritize quality. By educating and empowering your colleagues, you can foster a culture where everyone understands the significance of delivering high-quality products and is equipped with the knowledge and tools to contribute effectively to this goal. |

||||
A few important points: |
||||
|
||||
- Foster a quality-centric mindset and promote shared responsibility for quality across the organization |
||||
- Integrate quality processes into every phase of the software development lifecycle and encourage collaboration among team members |
||||
- Take initiative, provide guidance, and lead the company in adopting best practices for ensuring high-quality products |

# Tester Mindset |
||||
|
||||
As a Quality Assurance Engineer, your job is to look for the weak spots in a product, whatever that product may be, and report them back, so that they can be fixed and thus, the product you are working on can be of the highest quality possible. |
||||

||||
To do your job successfully, you need to have a Testing mindset. What does that mean? Among other things, it means you have to think in the most destructive way possible and be as creative as possible. |
||||
|
||||
A few important points: |
||||
|
||||
- Know the product you are testing |
||||
- Don’t be afraid to think outside of the box when you are testing it |
||||
- Don’t be afraid to misuse it as much as possible. |
