Hypothesis-Based Immersive Session Testing (HyBIST) is a personal scientific test methodology that focuses on leveraging one’s intellect by enabling sharp goal focus, via tools for scientific thinking to rapidly assess cleanliness of software. The central theme of HyBIST is to hypothesis potential defect types (PDT) that can impede “cleanliness of software” and then “prove their presence”.
