Software testing is many processes such as learning, experimenting through hypotheses, testing design, test execution, and collecting information about products, projects, processes, and ideas.
Software testing is focused on identifying risks and exploring the product or project to discover if those risks are real and a threat. Software testing offers a feedback loop for providing information that's been uncovered or for confirming whether expectations on how the software should work are being met or not.
Software testing gives us an increased understanding for the team. The more we test, the more we know about the product. We uncover a fuller determination of the product's actual quality, and it can challenge the team's assumptions on what is to be created or what has been created. It can also help facilitate collaboration and communication between team members. There are many misconceptions that software testing is an easy thing to do, when it's not.
Software testing is a craft that requires skill, insight and passion for learning. It can also be very difficult to describe the purpose and value of testing. It requires practice.

Examples of software testing:
- Asking questions about the ideas relating to new software features
- Discover how the product will solve users problems
- Discover any risks surrounding the ideas
- Exploring the product and executing tests to discover information
- Giving feedback to the team or to the stakeholders to make an informed decision about the next steps to take with their product
