== History ==
Exploratory testing has always been performed by skilled testers. In the early 1990s, [[ad hoc]] was too often synonymous with sloppy and careless work. As a result, a group of test methodologists (now calling themselves the [[Software testing controversies|Context-Driven School]]) began using the term "exploratory" seeking to emphasize the dominant thought process involved in unscripted testing, and to begin to develop the practice into a teachable discipline. This new terminology was first published by Cem Kaner in his book ''Testing Computer Software'' <ref name=Kaner7-11>Cem Kaner
