In this episode, we dive into exploratory testing, a dynamic technique where tests are designed and executed simultaneously, using insights from previous experiments to guide future ones. We explore various exploratory testing tours, including:

• The Guide Book Tour: Following the user manual step by step.
• The Money Tour: Prioritizing features most essential to users.
• The Saboteur Tour: Intentionally introducing problems like network errors and corrupted files.
• The Anti-Social Tour: Doing the opposite of expected user actions.

We also discuss testing in the small versus testing in the large, scenario testing, and designing tests using states and events. Finally, we share thoughts on the future of testing.
