In fact, BUG is an unavoidable problem for any product. Not all bugs can be found, and more or less online defects will appear. No one can fully consider all the functional operations and application scenarios of the software. Although it is impossible to achieve completely zero defects, every time we release a product, we need to pursue fewer and fewer defects and fewer and fewer product complaints.
Ordinary tests can no longer satisfy the status quo, you can try exploratory testing.
Exploratory testing is a kind of testing without use cases. Unlike random testing, exploratory testing often has a specific direction of thinking, and is aimed at a wider range. It is generally based on large functional areas rather than functional points.
Today, I would like to introduce to you several mainstream exploratory testing artifacts , which can help you break through existing thinking and improve the efficiency of finding problems when testing encounters bottlenecks.
1. Dandelion Bug Exploration Test
Dandelion cloud testing experts, according to the situation of App products, conduct multi-person and multi-dimensional App product testing, cover real user scenarios, find hidden defects, and provide quality assurance endorsement for enterprise Apps.
Dandelion is a platform that our team has been using, and it is also a platform that developers are familiar with. Dandelion internal beta distribution is also regarded as the leader in China. Developers use products under Dandelion from the initial stage of research and development until the product is launched. There is an inexplicable trust in it. Let me first talk about the experience that the Dandelion Bug exploration test brought me. First of all, a certain test platform I used before was abandoned due to many requirements and a long time for reporting. The old family! Only after you have used it can you speak confidently!
Dandelion Cloud Test Expert - Bug Exploration Test is an exploratory testing service highly adaptable to mobile Internet applications, which organically integrates free exploratory testing, scenario exploratory testing, strategy-based exploratory testing and Feedback and exploratory testing are integrated to solve APP bugs in an all-round way.

At the same time, Dandelion also uploaded the pictures and video information of the bug to the report synchronously, so that the bug is clearly visible!
2. WeTest Bug Exploration Test
A number of testers from different fields simulate real users' operation scenarios and operational thinking to conduct exploratory and impromptu tests at the same time.
WeTest under Tencent , I feel that the advantage of this platform is the one-stop testing service.

The bug exploration and testing tools are not just the ones introduced, you can search and find out by yourself. I have been using the bug exploration test under the Dandelion platform myself . Depending on the nature and scale of each company, the bug exploration testing tools used may also be different. What is the bug exploration testing tool you use?
