- cost of qualityThe total costs incurred on quality activities and issues and often split into prevention costs, appraisal costs, internal failure costs and external failure costs.
- COTSAcronym for commercial off-the-shelf.
- coverageThe degree, expressed as a percentage, to which a specified coverage item has been exercised by a test suite.
- coverage analysisMeasurement of achieved coverage to a specified coverage item during test execution referring to predetermined criteria to determine whether additional testing is required and if so, which test cases are needed.
- coverage itemAn entity or property used as a basis for test coverage, e.g. equivalence partitions or code statements.
- coverage measurement toolSee coverage tool.
- coverage toolA tool that provides measures of what structural elements have been exercised by the test suite.
- critical success factorAn element necessary for an organization or project to achieve its mission. Critical success factors are the critical factors or activities required for ensuring the success.
- Critical Testing ProcessesEin inhaltsbasiertes Modell für Testprozesse, das auf zwölf kritischen Prozessen aufgebaut ist. Diese enthalten gut sichtbare Prozesse, durch welche Mitarbeiter und das Management die Kompetenz und die erfolgskritischen Prozesse bewerten können, deren Leistungsfähigkeit den Gewinn und den Ruf(...)
- cross-site scriptingA vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious code into an otherwise benign website [NIST.IR.7298].
- CTPAkronym für Critical Testing Processes .
- custom softwareSoftware developed specifically for a set of users or customers. The opposite is off-the-shelf software.
- custom toolA software tool developed specifically for a set of users or customers.
- cyclomatic complexityThe maximum number of linear, independent paths through a program. Cyclomatic complexity may be computed as: L – N + 2P, where – L = the number of edges/links in a graph – N = the number of nodes in a graph – P = the number of disconnected parts of the graph (e.g. a called graph or(...)
- cyclomatic numberSee cyclomatic complexity.
- Daily BuildProzess in der Entwicklung, bei dem ein vollständiges System täglich (oftmals über Nacht) neu übersetzt und gebunden wird, damit jederzeit ein konsistentes System einschließlich seiner letzten Änderungen verfügbar ist.
- daily buildA development activity whereby a complete system is compiled and linked every day (often overnight), so that a consistent system is available at any time including all latest changes.
- DashboardEine Darstellung der dynamischen Messung der operationalen Leistung von Unternehmen oder Aktivitäten. Dazu werden visuelle Darstellungen der Metriken mittels Zeiger– oder Zählerinstrumenten genutzt, die an das Amaturenbrett eines Autos erinnern, so dass der Effekt von Ereignissen oder(...)
- dashboardA representation of dynamic measurements of operational performance for some organization or activity, using metrics represented via metaphores such as visual “dials”, “counters”, and other devices resembling those on the dashboard of an automobile, so that the effects of events or activities(...)
- data definitionAn executable statement where a variable is assigned a value.
- data-driven testingA scripting technique that stores test input and expected results in a table or spreadsheet, so that a single control script can execute all of the tests in the table. Data-driven testing is often used to support the application of test execution tools such as capture/playback tools. [Fewster(...)
- data flowAn abstract representation of the sequence and possible changes of the state of data objects, where the state of an object is any of: creation, usage, or destruction [Beizer].
- data flow analysisA form of static analysis based on the definition and usage of variables.
- data flow coverageThe percentage of definition-use pairs that have been exercised by a test case suite.
- data flow testingA white-box test design technique in which test cases are designed to execute definition-use pairs of variables.
- data obfuscationData transformation that makes it difficult for a human to recognize the original data.
- data privacyThe protection of personally identifiable information or otherwise sensitive information from undesired disclosure
- data qualityAn attribute of data that indicates correctness with respect to some pre-defined criteria, e.g., business expectations, requirements on data integrity, data consistency.
- database integrity testingTesting the methods and processes used to access and manage the data(base), to ensure access methods, processes and data rules function as expected and that during access to the database, data is not corrupted or unexpectedly deleted, updated or created.
- DatenbankintegritätstestTesten der Methoden und Prozesse für den Zugriff und die Administration der Datenbank. Dies umfasst die Prüfung, dass Zugriffsmethoden, Prozesse und Integritätsregeln wie erwartet funktionieren und durch einen Datenbankzugriff Daten nicht beschädigt, unerwartet gelöscht, geändert oder neu(...)
