Exploratory Testing with James Whittaker

Last week in this spot, we wrote about exploratory testing (An Exploratory Testing Renaissance?) and provided a 3 part video of Jonathan Kohl offering his take on this subject. After I first found these videos, I came across one on the same subject by James Whittaker. Most of you know him from his "How to Break Software"books. Well it turns out James is equally excited about exploratory testing. So much so, he has a book on the subject titled "Exploratory Software Testing: Tips, Tricks, Tours, and Techniques to Guide Test Design" coming out this fall.

In today's video, James Whittaker provides an overview of Exploratory Testing--the subject of his latest book. He talks about ways to explore your application with intent, strategy, and tactics that find bugs and validate functionality.
