- deliverableAny (work) product that must be delivered to someone other that the (work) product’s author.
- demilitarized zoneA physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization’s external-facing services to an untrusted network, commonly the Internet. See also network zone.
- Deming cycleAn iterative four-step problem-solving process, (plan-do-check-act), typically used in process improvement. [After Deming]
- DemingkreisEin iterativer Problemlösungsprozess, der aus vier Phasen besteht (planen, ausführen, überprüfen, umsetzen) und typischerweise in der Prozessverbesserung genutzt wird. [Nach Deming]
- denial of serviceA security attack that is intended to overload the system with requests such that legitimate requests cannot be serviced.
- design-based testingAn approach to testing in which test case are designed based on the architecture and/or detailed design of a component or system (e.g. tests of interfaces between components or systems).
- desk checkingTesting of software or a specification by manual simulation of its execution. See also static testing.
- development testingFormal or informal testing conducted during the implementation of a component or system, usually in the development environment by developers [after IEEE 610]. See also component testing.
- deviationSee incident.
- deviation reportSee incident report.
- Diagnose (IDEAL)Die Phase im IDEAL-Modell, in welcher der derzeitige Stand bestimmt wird (in Relation zum angestrebten Stand). Die Diagnose-Phase enthält die Aktivitäten: derzeitigen und angestrebten Stand beschreiben und Empfehlungen entwickeln. Siehe auch IDEAL.
- diagnosing (IDEAL)The phase within the IDEAL model where it is determined where one is, relative to where one wants to be. The diagnosing phase consists of the activities: characterize current and desired states and develop recommendations. See also IDEAL.
- DienstblockadeEin Sicherheitsangriff mit dem Ziel, das System mit Anfragen so zu überlasten, dass es berechtigte Anfragen nicht mehr bedienen kann.
- dirty testingSee negative testing.
- discount usability testingA test strategy for usability testing that puts emphasis on keeping costs down without compromising too much on the quality of the usability evaluation.
- DMZAkronym für Demilitarized zone (entmilitarisierte Zone).
- documentation testingTesting the quality of the documentation, e.g. user guide or installation guide.
- DokumentationstestTesten der Qualität der Dokumentation, z.B. des Benutzer- oder Installationshandbuchs.
- domainThe set from which valid input and/or output values are selected.
- domain analysisA black-box test design technique that is used to identify efficient and effective test cases when multiple variables can or should be tested together. It builds on and generalizes equivalence partitioning and boundary values analysis. See also boundary value analysis, equivalence partitioning.
- DOSAkronym für Denial of Service (Dienstblockade).
- DreipunktschätzungEin Verfahren zur Schätzung des Testens, das für das betrachtete Thema drei Schätzwerte jeweils für den besten Fall, den schlimmsten Fall und den höchstwahrscheinlichsten Fall benutzt, um den Grad der Gewissheit des Schätzungsergebnisses zu bestimmen.
- driverA software component or test tool that replaces a program that takes care of the control and/or the calling of a component or system [after TMap].
- dynamic analysisThe process of evaluating the behaviour, e.g. memory performance, CPU usage, of a system or component during execution [after IEEE 610].
- dynamic analysis toolA tool that provides run-time information on the state of the software code. These tools are most commonly used to identify unassigned pointers, check pointer arithmetic and to monitor the allocation, use and de-allocation of memory and to flag memory leaks.
- dynamic comparisonComparison of actual and expected results, performed while the software is being executed, for example by a test execution tool.
- dynamic testingTesting that involves the execution of the software of the component or system.
- dynamische AnalyseProzess der Bewertung des Verhaltens (z.B. Speichereffizienz, CPU-Nutzung) eines Systems oder einer Komponente während der Nutzung. [Nach IEEE 610]
- dynamischer TestPrüfung des Testobjekts durch Ausführung auf einem Rechner.
- dynamischer VergleichVergleich der tatsächlichen mit den vorausgesagten Ergebnissen, ausgeführt zur Laufzeit, z.B. durch ein Testausführungswerkzeug.
