Explore with using template

As explained in Software Testing with Generative AI

A test-charter formulation template consisting of an exploration objective, its data or conditions, and the purpose of discovering a result.

Structures an exploratory-testing charter around three parts: what to explore, the data or conditions to use, and what result or insight to discover. section 8.1.2

Turning risks into charters

Convert identified risks into charters with the template, then provide them to an LLM to suggest additional exploratory prompts. Treat suggestions as options: human testers apply creative, lateral, and critical thinking to select what is useful. section 8.1.2

How Software Testing with Generative AI covers it

How deep it goes
Defines three charter elements and demonstrates risk conversion, while stopping short of treating generated suggestions as reliable without selection.
Examples
Uses risks converted into charters and LLM-returned prompts as the practical exercise.
What you can do after
Apply it via exploratory charters to generate candidate prompts, then evaluate and organize those prompts with human judgment.
How it connects
Connects exploratory testing with test charters, risk analysis, prompt engineering, and large language models.
