What is Monkey Testing? 🐵
Monkey Testing is a type of random testing where the tester provides random inputs without any specific test cases or logic. The goal is to check if the system can handle unexpected behavior or crashes.

Example:
Imagine you have a mobile app. In Monkey Testing, you randomly tap buttons, swipe in different directions, enter gibberish text, or perform unexpected actions to see if the app crashes.

When to Use?
✅ To check the stability of an application.
✅ When you want to simulate unpredictable user behavior.

What is Adhoc Testing? 🎯
Adhoc Testing is an informal testing approach where testers explore the application without following predefined test cases. It relies on experience, intuition, and creativity to find defects.

Example:
A tester uses an e-commerce website without a test script. They might try unusual product searches, apply multiple discount codes, or attempt to checkout without adding items to the cart.

When to Use?
✅ When quick defect detection is needed.
✅ When experienced testers want to find hidden bugs using their domain knowledge.

Both Monkey Testing and Adhoc Testing are useful for finding defects, but they serve different purposes. Monkey Testing is purely random, while Adhoc Testing is more intuitive and relies on tester expertise. Using both together can improve software quality!
