Ad Hoc Testing is an informal, unstructured testing method where testers explore the software without a specific plan or documentation, looking for unexpected behavior or bugs.
What is the goal of Ad Hoc Testing?
The goal of Ad Hoc Testing is to quickly find defects without following structured test cases, often uncovering unexpected issues.
How does Ad Hoc Testing differ from Exploratory Testing?
While both methods are informal, Exploratory Testing involves simultaneous learning, test design, and execution, whereas Ad Hoc Testing is more spontaneous and less structured.
When is Ad Hoc Testing most useful?
Ad Hoc Testing is useful in situations where time is limited or formal test cases are not available, allowing testers to quickly assess the quality of a system.
