What techniques did they use in their exploratory testing?

They employed session-based testing, where testers would focus on specific areas of the application for a set period, documenting their findings in real-time.

Were there any challenges they faced?

Yes, one challenge was ensuring that all testers had a clear understanding of the application. They addressed this by conducting training sessions before testing.
