The document discusses the scientific method approach to software testing. It explains that scientific testing involves forming hypotheses, designing experiments to test those hypotheses, and observing and interpreting the results. The document then provides an example of using this approach to test a toy called Big Trak Jnr to discover what the X2 button does. It emphasizes that good testing requires asking questions, thinking critically about the testing process, and guarding against confirmation bias during experimentation and evaluation.
