software and designs test cases to uncover them.

Answer / phani
I think error guessing is like "when we do the testing if
any prob with system/application feature access/issue/bug
it will throw some errors like "script error" or "runtime
error" or "internal error" pop up's. In that pop up it will
show some message like "________ missing". BY seeing that
message we can say it will come in because of this..."
This may be the "error guessing".Please correct if i am
wrong.
Thanks,
Phani
