A Test Charter is a document that outlines the goals or objectives for a specific testing session. It serves as a guide for testers during exploratory testing activities.
Key Elements:
- Objective: What needs to be achieved during the session?
- Scope: What areas or features will be tested?
- Resources: What tools or data will be needed?
- Timeframe: How long will the testing session last?
A clear test charter helps focus efforts and ensures that testers understand their objectives during exploratory sessions.
