	exploratory testing studies

	@jamesmarcusbach: I have seen a few studies of exploratory testing that were scientifically respectable, but none of those used the term "exploratory testing"

	@Rob_Lambert: Care to share the scientifically respectable studies? Genuinely interested to find out how they studied ET.

	@jamesmarcusbach: Study #1: See the book "Exploring Science." It is the chronicle of a group of experiments in figuring out technology.

	@jamesmarcusbach: See Jerry Weinberg's 1965 Ph.D. dissertation on exploratory problem-solving: http://bit.ly/KTXML

	First, I would like to start out by recommending that anyone who is
	serious about software craftsmanship go out and read Pete McBreen's
	book "Software Craftsmanship". I think it's a critical starting place
	for these discussions, and on a more personal note, the book had a
	huge impact on me. Probably the biggest reason I am a part of this
	group is that I have no where else to go. :) I was a later-in-life
	self-taught programmer who had a wife and child(ren) to support from
	the day I wrote my first for loop, so I have no formal scientific or
	engineering education, and I don't have the option of taking time off
	to obtain one. And yet I want to become great at what I do. In my
