As a software tester ur main work are:
write testcase against the requirement or buisness
requirement and execute it and if there is a mismatch
between expected and actual result, log the defect and give
a severity and report back to the developer.

Answer / b g suresh
Apart from all the traditional Testing practices like
writing testcases, reporting and monitoring those, Software
testers are having some more major responsibilities:
1) Analyze and identify the flaws/mismatches in the
requirements.
2) Confirm the best Usability of the application.
3) Identify the main integration points in the appilcation
across different modules, before the starting of the actual
testing, so this will indirectly guide the development team
into the right way.
4) Suggest the best ways to improve the usability and to
abide the businees rules(Requirements).
5) Indirectly 'Software Testers' are the REAL PROJECT
MANAGERS/PROCESS DRIVERS.
cheers to all Software testers.!!!
