Q

What is performed after changes are made to the code, when software configurations are modified, or after maintenance activities are performed on the hardware the code resides on? This ensures that the software works the same way it did prior to the change or maintenance activity.

A

Regression Testing

19
Q

Action that is taken to correct a defect that was discovered while performing quality control

A

Unit Testing

27
Q

UAT

A

User Acceptance Testing

28
Q
