Exploratory testing is a name given for a technique of using knowledge, experience, and skills to test software in a non-linear, investigatory fashion.

• Is it a powerful and important part of each professional tester’s repertoire, or actually magic quality pixie dust?
• Is this the only real way of testing, or is there room for other forms of validation as well as verification?
• What are the origins of exploratory testing, and who actually invented the technique (as opposed to coining the current name)?
• Does it always degrade into an unmanageable, unaccountable, random bug hunt, or are there ways to instill order, measure coverage, and build confidence with it?

In this webinar, Rex will explore and burst some of the myths of exploratory testing.
