New Goal in My Learning University:  Boost Your Testing Super Powers to Exploratory Testing. My Learning Notes -   Day 01:  What is Exploratory Testing? What is Exploratory Testing? Exploratory Testing is an approach to Software Testing. It is sometimes more productive than Scripted Testing. We at least unconsciously perform exploratory testing. How do we perform Exploratory Testing? In Exploratory Testing, We test design and test execution at the same time. Not defined in Advance. In Scripted Testing, We predefined procedures (Manual / Automated). Exploratory Testing != Adhoc Testing Exploratory Testing is done in a specific way to verify specific facts. Exploratory Testing is a structured Process. Whereas Adhoc Testing is not done in a specific way nor to verify specific facts. Adhoc Testing is unstructured Process. Term “Exploratory Testing” is coined by Cem Kaner in Testing Computer Software as Thoughtful approach to Adhoc-Te...

Challenge Link:   https://www.ministryoftesting.com/dojo/lessons/30-days-of-api-testing    It has been long time I have worked on API Testing, after learning from API Testing Dojo (year 2015). 14th Challenge: Compare and contrast mocking, stubbing, and faking. It is one of the challenging topic to understand related to Unit Testing. Test Doubles (Mocks, Stubs, Fakes etc.), are an essential tool when writing unit tests.  A test double is an object that can stand in for a real object in a test , similar to how a stunt double stands in for an actor in a movie for dangerous scenes.  The most common types of test doubles are stubs, mocks, and fakes. Their purpose is to be substituted for dependencies of the class or classes under test. Example: E-mail services are a canonical example - we don't want to ...

I am not into Automation of (UI/API) levels. So, this challenge helped me to uncover different tools used in Testing the APIs. I always reach out to this website to learn related to Automation. Joe writes posts which focuses on Automation -  https://www.joecolantonio.com   There are different API Testing tools which we can use to Automate API Testing.
