What does it mean to be a technical tester
Introduction
Push toward being more technical
Lots of testers don't want to go down to management route
Technical is taken to mean automation
Testers have concerns about not being technical enough
Testers i've interviewed / work with talk about wanting to be more technical but almost exclusively talk about automation

Labels can cause feelings of inferiority
What is 'technical enough' ?
