Member-only story
I graduated from a technology university major in Network Department.
Back in the day when I was a student, I did not enjoy coding at all. All the tasks in the subjects at university related to coding usually get done by my friends. The only time I did it by myself was when doing the final project before graduation.
So right after graduation, when there is a job opportunity about being a manual tester I took it as long as I could earn some money and don’t have to code.
But after a few years, I soon realized that doing manual test is boring.
I decided to take some tutorials about development (Java at that time) and still found it difficult as hell :)).
A friend told me I should try to use Selenium for automating some UI tests.
After gave it a try, seeing the magic things Selenium could do, I decided to take a little deeper in the work and finally got into the job for automation.

The job I first got into was to test API of an e-wallet product using JMeter.
