Adhoc testing is defined as an informal testing type to break the system. This Software Testing type is usually an unplanned activity.
It does not follow any test design techniques to create test cases. It does not create test cases altogether!
There are two types of Adhoc testing which I have listed below:
Buddy Testing:
Two buddies mutually work on identifying defects in the same module. Mostly one buddy will be from the development team and another person will be from the testing team. Buddy testing helps the testers develop better test cases and the development team can also make design changes early.
Pair testing:
Two testers are assigned modules, share ideas and work on the same machines to find defects. One person can execute the tests and another person can take notes on the findings. The roles of the persons can be tester and scriber during testing.
