I am the founder and CEO of Hexawise. I'm interested in using Design of Experiments methods from applied statistics to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of software testing. The Hexawise test design tool improves coverage with the fewest possible number of tests. It uses pairwise, and other, more sophisticated methods of optimized combination testing.

Is there a guide or systematic way of writing test scenarios? Laura, Great suggestion. I've updated my answer to include your improvement to it. |

Techniques for test selection, give a large suite of test cases Those articles are not about just any type of test generation; they're all about a specific type of test generation. Namely, generating tests in a systematic way so as to cover as much as possible in as few tests as possible. They are about minimizing the size of your test suite for a given scope. These approaches are extremely powerful and well-proven, yet they remain wildly underutilized in the software testing community. The test generation approaches described in the articles work equally well whether you have an existing set of tests or you're generating a new set from scratch. |

Techniques for test selection, give a large suite of test cases D.W., Kudos for trying to find actual empirical evidence! I would suggest these additional articles for you. They do a good job of explaining how test suite reduction techniques have been effectively put into practice: combinatorialtesting.com/clear-introductions-1 |

Capture screen during exploratory testing Upvoted. If you want both a screen shot and a way to keep track of tester comments throughout an exploratory testing session, Rapid Reporter is truly fantastic. A very nice example of Rapid Reporter in action (with screen shots shown amidst a tester's comments about their developing thought process throughout the exploratory testing session) can be found here: testing.gershon.info/rapidreporter/pairingrr/AngryWeaselTheApp/… |

Is there a name for this type of vector operation? uploaded new images because the previous ones were fuzzy and difficult to read. |
