Hi all.

I want to know few things about Game Testing i.e, Quality Assurance and Testing as a career.

I am just curious that is this career field related to the IT?

Experience as a game tester have any scope/future in other companies/organizations (non-game)? I mean, will the experience be useful in other industries? In other domains like 'Software Testing'?
Can I switch later to software testing with an experience in QA Testing in game industry?

Can you please list out the limitations of the experience as a QA & Testing in game industry?

And also I've heard (actually googled) that there will be lots of overtime in gaming industries even in prominent gaming companies located in Hyderabad like EA Sports, Gameloft etc. Is this true?

And some pros and cons of being a game tester (QA and Testing).

Thank you.
