Value of Exploratory Testing
Exploratory testing is a hands-on approach to software testing, where testers simultaneously learn, design, and execute tests. It’s particularly valuable for uncovering unexpected issues and gaining a deeper understanding of the software under test. Leaning on exploratory testing, companies gain
-
-
Increased defect discovery through testers’ creative and intuitive strategies, as they can investigate unexpected paths that scripted tests might miss.
-
Greater testing efficiency since professionals can quickly adapt their strategy based on what they learn during the testing process, rather than being constrained by predefined test cases.
-
Faster time-to-market. While exploratory testing may seem less structured, it can actually accelerate the development phase.
-
Rapid feedback on new features or changes, as exploratory testing allows immediate investigation of potential issues without waiting for formal test cases to be written.
-
