The Error guessing is a technique where the experienced and good testers are encouraged to think of situations in which the software may not be able to cope. Some people seem to be naturally good at testing and others are good testers because they have a lot of experience either as a tester or working with a particular system and so are able to find out its weaknesses.

What is Experience- based testing technique?
In experience-based techniques, people’s knowledge, skills and background are of prime importance to the test conditions and test cases. [Read more…] about What is Experience- based testing technique?
What is Use case testing in software testing?
Use case testing is a technique that helps us identify test cases that exercise the whole system on a transaction by transaction basis from start to finish. They are described by Ivar Jacobson in his book Object-Oriented Software Engineering: A Use Case Driven Approach [Jacobson, 1992]. [Read more…] about What is Use case testing in software testing?
What is State transition testing in software testing?
State transition testing is used where some aspect of the system can be described in what is called a ‘finite state machine’. This simply means that the system can be in a (finite) number of different states, and the transitions from one state to another are determined by the rules of the ‘machine’. This is the model on which the system and the tests are based. [Read more…] about What is State transition testing in software testing?
What is Decision table in software testing? How to use, examples
The techniques of equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis are often applied to specific situations or inputs. However, if different combinations of inputs result in different actions being taken, this can be more difficult to show using equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis, which tend to be more focused on the user interface.
The other two specification-based software testing techniques, decision tables and state transition testing are more focused on business logic or business rules. [Read more…] about What is Decision table in software testing? How to use, examples
