Software testing- explains itself , testing softwares to ensure that they perform thier funtions as specified , to know any possible problems and correct it before the software is being published, or released to the public

When we speak about software testing, we should also address Test Driven Development (TDD) which is a software development practice that focuses on creating unit test cases before developing the actual code. It is an iterative approach that combines programming, the creation of unit tests, and refactoring.

TDD is primarily a developer's tool to help create a well-written unit of code (function, class, or module) that correctly performs a set of operations. ATDD is a communication tool between the customer, developer, and tester to ensure that the requirements are well-defined. TDD requires test automation.

He wants to go into tech which requires alot of problem solving skills but just this little problem he can't use his head to solve.
