Exploratory testing is an experience-based testing technique often used in addition to formal ones. However, it can be used as a replacement for formal techniques when time is limited and/or documentation is poor. Conducting test charters and maximizing efficiency are seen as though works due to their informal nature. Dividing test load to testers, scoring the severity level, consolidating the results, and reporting the issues are some challenges of this process. In this study, gamification efforts for the exploratory testing process are told. Two public institutions in Turkiye demanded software testing for their software for a limited timeframe and employed testers motivated by gamification efforts. It was seen that gamification helped us detect more critical faults quickly. Failure cases such as test contest organization attempts are told as well.
