Exploratory Testing: Exploratory Testing can be a creative,
informal software test that is not based on formal test
plans or test cases, testers may be learning the software
as they test it.
Ad-hoc testing: Ad-hoc testing is similar to exploratory
testing, but often taken to mean that the testers have
significant understanding of the software before testing it.

Ad-Hoc testing ,generally every testing team conducts
formaltesting on the build ,in some situations like lack
of time ,lack of domain knowledge and lack of documentation
testing team conducts informal testing they concentrates on
the main functionalities this is called 'adhoc testing'
Exploratory testing comes under the catagory of adhoc
testing ,testing conducted by the testing team with out any

Answer / josephwarnel
Exploratory software testing is a powerful and fun approach
to testing. Exploratory testing is especially useful in
complex testing situations, when little is known about the
product, or as part of preparing a set of scripted tests.
The basic rule is this: exploratorytesting is called for any
time the next test you should perform is not obvious, or
when you want to go beyond the obvious.
