Software engineering is a discipline that cannot be applied based solely on elegant theories. Real software production requires software solutions that may apply a mixture of engineering and ad-hoc practices in a systematic way. In this sense, experimentation is staple for identifying the best practices and solutions for a given software development problem. This paper presents results from an experimental evaluation of the use of model-based testing and the use of exploratory testing in the
