Bug Bash Facilitation Kit

Bug bashes fail when charters are vague. We supply facilitation scripts, scope fences, and merge strategies for duplicate findings. You will run a mock bash with cohort peers and receive critique on pacing and psychological safety.

Included focus areas

• Charter templates with clear in/out boundaries
• Participant briefings that respect non-testers
• Duplicate merge etiquette
• Live note-taking patterns for facilitators
• Debrief formats that highlight systemic issues
• Follow-up tasks for owners after the bash
• Accessibility checks during exploratory windows

Outcomes you can demonstrate

• Facilitate a ninety-minute bash using the kit with peer feedback incorporated
• Publish a debrief summary executives can skim in under two minutes
• Identify when a bash is the wrong tool and what to do instead
