So did I understand this correctly that adhoc testing and exploratory testing use exactly the same techniques except, that during exploratory testing a test plan (probably using a mind map) is created?
Though there are a little difference in my experience but it is also said they are same. "Exploratory testing is also known as ad hoc testing. - James Bach, in this article http://www.satisfice.com/articles/et-article.pdf" . From my view , adhoc testing should be a part of exploratory testing without prior planning.
Thanks for your grateful informations, am working in FNT software solutions, so it will be helpful info for my works.
