RE: Why do we need testers not developers for testing?
 
There are number of reasons for which we need dedicated testers and not developers:

2. Tester not only have a very good understanding of various flows and modules in an application, he also applies his skill and expertise to find bugs.
3. A tester not only concentrates on functionality but also on other issues like usability, GUI, Database
