Explore It!

Elisabeth Hendrickson

Uncover surprises, risks, and potentially serious bugs with exploratory testing. Rather than designing all tests in advance, explorers design and execute small, rapid experiments. In this book, you'll learn how to analyze software to discover key points of vulnerability, how to design experiments on the fly, how to hone your observation skills, and how to focus your efforts.

You'll start by crafting charters to guide your exploration. Then you'll vary interactions, sequences, data, timing, and configurations. You'll incorporate analysis techniques such as state modeling, data modeling, and defining context diagrams. Finally, you'll apply the skills and techniques in a variety of contexts and integrate exploration into the development cycle from the beginning.

You can apply the techniques in this book to any kind of software to discover its capabilities, limitations, and risks.
