Difference Between Adhoc Testing & Exploratory Testing?
Answer Posted / qa thought leader
I am glad to participate in such a wonderful discussion.
According to my opinion Ad Hoc testing is basically a part
of exploratory testing. QA people usually do Ad-hoc testing
when all the planned activities like execution of test cases
is finished and amount of new bugs finding gets severely
decreased. Tester actually test the application based on his
skill and experience and may perform controlled or
uncontrolled Ad-hoc testing without any planning. As per my
understanding the technique helps in finding some bugs which
are not found by executing the test cases because tester
seeks to find bug with any means that seems to be positive
or negative. It is also found very effective where
documentation is very less or there is no time to create
documents. We can not 100 % dependent on Ad hoc testing as
Ad Hoc testing has advantage as well as disadvantage for
each project. We can test application randomly to save time.
In that case there is chance to miss testing area/ bugs.
Complete knowledge of the application is basic requirement
for Ad Hoc testing.
