lol.... its not that cool....... hehe and you should have skills on programing, analyzing etc

While popularized as a dream job for gamers, interactive entertainment software testing is a highly technical field requiring computing expertise, analytic competence, thick skin, and the ability to endure long hours.
Modern video and computer games take from one to three years to develop (depending on scale). Testing begins late in the development process, sometimes from halfway to 75% into development (it starts so late because, until then, there is little to nothing to playtest). Testers get new builds from the developers on a schedule (daily/weekly) and each version must be uniquely identified in order to map errors to versions. They also test the durability of the game disc through a series of tests that can include how much damage the disc can take before becoming unresponsive, and how glitches can affect how the game runs.

I am not talking to you about getting a job in their internal testing team.To get such a job you need to be a best pro gamer in the world.I dont think even the best sri lankan gamers are upto that standard and also game testing doesnt only mean just playing the game to find glitches.There are many types of testing whr in somekind of testing you need to go over the each line of coding to find bugs.For that you need high degree of expertise.

Before releasing any good game they invite outside gaming community to test their game.Because even after their intensive testing session there are some bugs remaining I could find pleanty of such bugz in cod4 initial version.So for this job you dont need anything other than some gaming experience and good eyesight
