Answer / priyanka agrawal
This is a Test design technique where the experience of a
tester is used to find the components of software where
defects might be present.
It is mostly done by experienced testers who can use their
past experience to find defects in software.
Error guessing has no rules for testing, it only uses the
testers previous skills.
In error guessing testers can think of situations where
software will fail. For example:
1.Division by zero
2.Pressing submit button on form without filling any entries.
3.Entering wrong data in the fields and checking software
behavior.
