Food for Thought - Remember, every User is important

Recently; Dhruv (my Son) was exploring a new Application (given by the School) for his online classes. Within the respective Web Application he was clicking on a Submit button and nothing was happening.

Since he knows that I am a Software Tester; after all, his frustration he asked me a question as below. 😁

Somehow he assumed that I am the one who Test all the Softwares.

Out of curiosity; I just checked what was happening. With the help of Developer Tools, I was able to figure it out that it was HTTP 404 Not Found response code (which signifies that the Server can't find the requested resource).

Well, with this whole scenario; few things that come to my mind (as below).

- Always remember; every User is important.

- Consider different User Personas while Developing and Testing the Software application.

- Think about Users when you test Software's.

- Be a User first; then a Tester.

Do you agree? Comment below with your thoughts.
