what is the difference between adhoc testing, and error guessing..

Answer / mekala

Adhoc testing is not like formal testing with test plan or
test case.It is a random and free style testing performed
on application without using test case document.It is
carried out in the following manner,
1.After the completion of all test case excution before
they are going to relase the build.
2.If sufficient time is not available to test the
application according to test case.
3.Testing whether the application is working or not.

whereas
Error guessing is basically guessing an error by looking at
the application, which will be done by a experienced person.
EX:Blank or null character in string,negative
value,observing the cosmetic defects etc.
