Brian Osman - What is Exploratory Testing and how does it work with Session-Based Test Management?

Think James Bach, think Exploratory testing ... is it a structured approach or is it just a free for all hacking session?

Session Based Test Management (SBTM) not only enables a test team to manage and structure Exploratory Test sessions, but also provides a framework for reporting back to stakeholders on progress. What's more, it helps keep test teams performing with high levels of creativity, engagement and fun!

This 45 minute presentation will cover:

• What is Exploratory Testing
• How to structure your Exploratory Testing
• What is Session-Based Test Management
• The information produced by Session-Based Testing
• How to help your team improve its Exploratory Testing activities
