Testing Standard

Noun · Open Source

Definitions

  1. A standard or shared convention describing how tests should be written, organized, named, or enforced. In engineering organizations, testing standards reduce ambiguity and make quality expectations visible instead of informal.

    In plain English: A standard that defines how testing should be done.

    Example: "The testing standard specified smoke tests for every release artifact, which closed the gap between green unit tests and broken install packages."
