"Generic" (i.e. unstructured) tests can also be used as an abstraction of exploratory tests.

You can use Generic Tests as means to abstract some exploratory session. You can use the Generic Test Definition field to identify the session charter (e.g. goals of that session/mission).

During the execution of your session, you can attach evidence, report if all went fine and if not you may create defects. You may also decide to create a Manual Test, with the reproducible steps, for validating that the problem does not arise in the future.

Info
titlePlease note

If you have multiple testers involved in your exploratory session, then you can create different Test Executions each one assigned to a different tester; you may use the Test Execution planning dates to define the fixed time-frame allocated to your session. The Test Execution description can be used to specify the tester charter, which complements and focuses the session charter for the tester(s) involved in that Test Execution. Please note that a Test Execution can only contain the same Test once.
