## Highlights
- I decided to use Me We Us (https://www.thekua.com/atwork/2011/10/coaching-tool-me-we-us/) facilitation technique for generating the ideas.

- For this team I picked some pointers from James Bach’s Heuristic Test Strategy Model (http://www.satisfice.com/tools/htsm.pdf) and Elisabeth Hendricksson’s Test Heuristics Cheat Sheet (http://testobsessed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/testheuristicscheatsheetv1.pdf).

### Arranging brainstorming sessions
- In the first session we wrote to post-it notes test ideas
7 minutes individually
7 minutes with pair
- In the second session we further prioritized the ideas to NOW - LATER - EVEN LATER on a whiteboard.
- In the third session we created tasks for the backlog from the ideas that were on NOW.
