Heuristic Test Strategy Model

The Heuristic Test Strategy Model is a method used by software testers to plan and perform testing efficiently. It emphasizes exploring the software creatively using guided approaches—called heuristics—that focus on different aspects like input, navigation, and data. This helps identify bugs by thinking actively about what could go wrong, rather than following a fixed script. The model encourages testers to adapt their testing based on their observations, making the process more thorough and responsive to the software’s behavior, ultimately improving the chances of finding issues before the software reaches users.
