1.2 Comparison between beginner testers and expert testers thinking … Just copies from the specification Beginner Specification Test cases !!! Think and covert from the specification to test cases Expert Specification Test cases !! Think and covert from the specification to test cases Beginner Specification Test cases
1.2 Then, we can say • “Beginner testers plus Mind Map nearly equals to Expert testers!” ≒ + Beginner testers Expert testers Mind Map
