If quality is of value to someone who matters and if stakeholders need to know what threatens the quality and on-time delivery of their products and services, then session-based testing in an exploratory way is a powerful, effective and timely approach to expose the risks that can diminish the value.

In this speaking session, Paul will draw insight from founders of the context-driven school of testing to reveal the origin and history of exploratory testing as well as common misconceptions and benefits of testing in an exploratory way. He will introduce a session-based testing approach that leverages heuristics, oracles, and a wide variety of tools to quickly expose product risks in real-time enabling stakeholders to make informed timely strategic decisions.
