What are SFDIPOT and FEW HICCUPPS?

These are mnemonics for testing heuristics: SFDIPOT guides 'what' to test (Structure, Function, Data, etc.), while FEW HICCUPPS helps identify 'oracles' or ways to recognize a problem when you see one.

How does Session-Based Test Management (SBTM) help?

SBTM organizes exploration into 'charters' with specific goals and time-boxes, ensuring that testing remains focused, measurable, and easy to document for the rest of the team.

What is exploratory testing in the context of Claude Code?

It is a structured approach where Claude assists in simultaneous learning, test design, and execution, using heuristics to find complex bugs that traditional scripted tests might overlook.

Which agents are used in this skill?

The skill coordinates specialized agents including qe-flaky-test-hunter for pattern recognition, qe-visual-tester for UI anomalies, and qe-quality-analyzer for risk assessment.

セキュリティとテスト

Implements structured exploratory testing methodologies using session-based management and heuristics to uncover hidden software quality risks.

This skill equips developers and quality engineers with advanced frameworks for systematic software exploration, moving beyond random testing to find complex bugs that automation often misses. It integrates Session-Based Test Management (SBTM) with Rapid Software Testing (RST) heuristics like SFDIPOT and FEW HICCUPPS, providing a structured approach to investigating new features, mapping legacy systems, and identifying edge cases. By utilizing specialized 'Test Tours' and collaborative agent patterns, it ensures that exploration is skilled, documented, and focused on high-risk areas of the application.
