|
Self-validating Code
|
Code that makes an explicit attempt to determine its own correctness and to proceed accordingly.
|
|
|
Simulation
|
Use of an executable model to represent the behavior of an object. During testing, the computational hardware, the external environment, and even code segments may be simulated.
|
|
|
Software Feature
|
A distinguishing characteristic of a software item (e.g., performance, portability, or functionality).
|
|
|
Software Item
|
Source code, object code, job control code, control data, or a collection of these.
|
|
|
Special Test Data
|
Test data based on input values that are likely to require special handling by the program.
|
|
|
Standardize
|
Procedures that are implemented to ensure that the output of a process is maintained at a desired level.
|
|
|
Standards
|
The measure used to evaluate products and identify nonconformance. The basis upon which adherence to policies is measured.
|
|
|
Statement of
Requirements |
The exhaustive list of requirements that define a product. Note that the statement of requirements should document requirements proposed and rejected (including the reason for the rejection) during the requirement determination process.
|
|
|
Statement Testing
|
A test method that executes each statement in a program at least once during program testing.
|
|
|
Static Analysis
|
Analysis of a program that is performed without executing the program. It may be applied to the requirements, design, or code.
|
|
|
Statistical Process
Control |
The use of statistical techniques and tools to measure an ongoing process for change or stability.
|
|
|
Stress Testing
|
This test subjects a system, or components of a system, to varying environmental conditions that defy normal expectations. For example, high transaction volume, large database size or restart/recovery circumstances. The intention of stress testing is to identify constraints and to ensure that there are no performance problems.
|
|
|
Structural Testing
|
A testing method in which the test data is derived solely from the program structure.
