Vakjargon woordenlijst – Testconsultancy Groep

Het vakgebied Software Testen maakt gebruik van een internationaal jargon, waar de International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB) een rol speelt in het handhaven van een consistente uitleg van de termen en begrippen. We hebben voor u een doorzoekbaar mechanisme gerealiseerd waarmee u niet alleen de woorden kunt vinden, maar ook de definities ervan kunt doorzoeken.

Mocht u een begrip of definitie missen, laat het ons dan weten.

Er zijn 16 termen in deze lijst die beginnen met de letter L.

LCSAJ

A Linear Code Sequence And Jump, consists of the following three items (conventionally identified by line numbers in a source code listing): the start of the linear sequence of executable statements, the end of the linear sequence, and the target line to which control flow is transferred at the end of the linear sequence.

LCSAJ coverage

The percentage of LCSAJs of a component that have been exercised by a test suite. 100% LCSAJ coverage implies 100% decision coverage.

LCSAJ testing

A white box test design technique in which test cases are designed to execute LCSAJs.

lead assessor

The person who leads an assessment. In some cases, for instance CMMi and TMMi when formal assessments are conducted, the lead-assessor must be accredited and formally trained.

learnability

The capability of the software product to enable the user to learn its application. [ISO 9126] See also usability.

learning (IDEAL)

The phase within the IDEAL model where one learns from experiences and improves one’s ability to adopt new processes and technologies in the future. The learning phase consists of the activities: analyze and validate, and propose future actions. See also IDEAL.

level test plan

A test plan that typically addresses one test level. See also test plan.

lifecycle model

A partitioning of the life of a product or project into phases. [CMMI] See also software lifecycle.

link testing

See component integration testing.

load profile

A specification of the activity which a component or system being tested may experience in production. A load profile consists of a designated number of virtual users who process a defined set of transactions in a specified time period and according to a predefined operational profile. See also operational profile.

load testing

A type of performance testing conducted to evaluate the behavior of a component or system with increasing load, e.g. numbers of parallel users and/or numbers of transactions, to determine what load can be handled by the component or system. See also performance testing, stress testing.

load testing tool

See performance testing tool.

logic-coverage testing

See white box testing. [Myers]

logic-driven testing

See white box testing.

logical test case

See high level test case.

low level test case

A test case with concrete (implementation level) values for input data and expected results. Logical operators from high level test cases are replaced by actual values that correspond to the objectives of the logical operators. See also high level test case.
