What is Exploratory Testing?

Empowering Exploratory Testing

Cem Kaner, who coined the term Exploratory Testing, described it as "a style of software testing that emphasizes the personal freedom and responsibility of the individual tester.”

During this freeform, intuitive approach to testing, the testing steps and path are not predefined and have to be manually captured. The flow and steps of a testing session are important for effective communication between testers and developers.

At Inflectra, we strive to make the communication between testers and developers faster and easier with SpiraCapture and SpiraTest.

There are times when you want to know exactly what you did to produce a problem in an application under test. What sequence of clicks or url changes got the app into that weird state? By recording everything significant that the tester does, automatically, in the background, a whole session can be reviewed, one click at a time.

Capture testing activity & notes

SpiraCapture will record any tabs you want in Chrome or Edge. It tracks actions such as clicks and keystrokes automatically on each tab being recorded. While testing, you can add Steps to help organize where you are in your testing session. You can also add notes to remind yourself of when a specific issue happened.

Manage Recordings

It’s easy to look at your captured testing data: during testing, or at the end of a session. The data is broken up by the Steps you have made, and by the testing time. Web applications can be messy, but we have designed SpiraCapture to capture data so that the developer will know exactly what was clicked, or where text was entered.
