SBTM method for exploratory charters

Informal charter format

Scribble a list of test ideas down the y-axis and list aspects of some test coverage model—product elements, quality criteria, platforms, test techniques—across the x-axis. As an experiment, create multiple sheets using the same tests, but with a different coverage model on each sheet, and observe how a single test can provide coverage in a number of different dimensions. For a given coverage model, denser coverage of the matrix suggests (but does not prove) deeper coverage of the particular set of ideas on that table.

Describe the risk in the first column and propose the strategy in the second column
