Testing
Trial (J. Christopher Jones)
Trial and error (Nicholas Rescher)
[1982, First published 1970] J. Christopher Jones, Design Methods. Seeds of human future, John Wiley & Sons, New York
“‘Test it’ is perhaps the best design method there is.” (p. xxv)
[1977] Nicholas Rescher, Methodological Pragmatism, Basil Blackwell, Oxford
"It is ... important, even when we recognize the utility of a trial-and-error technique, that this be thought of not as a blind groping amongst all conceivable alternatives, but as a carefully guided search among the really promising alternatives."
"Hypotheses emerge not from random combinations but from the detection of patterns in the empirical data."
(Chapter IX, p. 157)
