Survey on Exploratory Testing
This survey is part of a graduate research at the Informatics Center of the Federal University of Pernambuco.
The goal is to understand how the Exploratory Testing (ET) process works inside companies. The survey focus is on employees of companies that use some level of Exploratory Testing in their applications.
This survey is anonymous, so feel free to answer the questions as truthfully as possible.
Important definitions:
1. Exploratory Testing: these are manual tests with greater freedom for the tester, in order to find problems in the developed applications.
2. Charters: documents that describe how the exploratory test should be performed. They are high-level guides that indicate features of the application that should be explored during execution.
3. Release notes: notes about changes that have been introduced in the application, indicating which features have been added, removed, or modified.
