Testing concepts and techniques can be learned. But having a knack for testing is different. What makes someone a born tester? What are some personality traits and skills that can make a person innately good at this profession?
In my latest article published at https://blog.gurock.com/natural-traits-great-tester/ , I have described four traits that belong to people who naturally make great testers. Developing these traits can help you in your testing career, and if you are a manager, these are the traits to seek when looking to hire new testers for your team!
- Communication
- Empathy
- Curiosity
- Meticulous Organisation
These traits may not have much to do with technical side of the job, but they surely contribute to the testing mindset and success of a great tester in a team. Read the full article -> https://blog.gurock.com/natural-traits-great-tester/

I see these as skills that can be developed versus attributes that you are born with. You?

Sure Tom, I also think that these skills can be developed if one works consciously on them. But I also believe that these qualities can be intrinsic to certain people’s personalities and come naturally to them.I personally have seen the benefits people like those have. If we see the benefits of such qualities, others will be inspired to imbibe them in their work too.
