@Prashant
When you work on any automation tool try to be expert in it, try to understand the concept how it works – be it functional testing tool, performance testing tool. Once you knoe you are good at working on one tool, you can easily get adapted to any other tool.

Software Test Engg.
hi, I am in manual web application testing. especially on functionarity testing.
I also engage in learning automation testing knowledges. I think it will help me doing software testing better.
Respected seniors, Vijay plz. answer me.
How to answer – “what METRICS do you use? How many types of metrics are there?” It’s a most imp question in interviews. As far as i know, different metrics are–Defect Density, Defect Leakage, Traceability Matrix, Bug Trend Analysis(means comparing no of bugs in different versions). Types of Metrics are Process, Product, Project. “Do CMM, ISO 9000 come under Metrics?”. I am not concluding the above information. My attempt is to make clear that on what topic seniors have to give their kind and valuable suggestions.
Plz. respond with full details.
Yours faithfully………Sirisha
