testing on the user story. Testers do not need to document tests, or

test results, but do need to log defects if any are encountered.

completed risk based testing on the same areas. There is allotted 120

minutes allocated to complete exploratory testing for this user story.

The team expects at the end of the 120 minutes to have a list of test

ideas, including data and actors, results and issues encountered, and

list of defects to be logged in the defect management tool.

(iii). A user story is assigned to business representative. The

business representative is told to use the system like the customer

would on a day-to-day basis. If issues are encountered, the business

representative is told to inform the tester, so that they can prioritize

and log the defect.
