Recently, I made an outline for a tester (who was still onboarding) for what kinds of things to test on a new API endpoint we added. They explored, wrote a bunch of automated tests to capture their wo

On my way to speak at #HelPy meetup on exploratory unit testing. There is a theme to stuff I talk about now and it seems to be that the bar for ‘testing’ can be too low. I know weird things of things I’ve tested. Too many don’t know even the basics. Learning is at the heart of #ExploratoryTesting.

A lot of our salary models are based on ideas of having beginners in low mandate roles.

Today I wonder if it is really that essential to say #ExploratoryTesting is manual testing because people need a way of allowing people who don't program to be a part of this thing we do in software development.
