Comma Separated Values, a file format that can be imported into Microsoft Excel. The format is textual with values separated by commas.
|
|
Behavior Driven Development, an agile development practice using test-driven development, but working from the outside in by starting with goals and requirements. Developers work with subject matter experts and other stakeholders to translate requirements into tests. The tests are named to closely match features identified by stakeholders.

A test function is considered to have ended in an error if the system under test throws an exception.

|
An execution environment for running Guidewire products using the H2 database and the Jetty servlet container. This environment is the one provided when a Guidewire product is initially installed.
|
|
Tests performed after changes made to software to check that the changes have not broken existing features. Since regression tests are typically run many times, automated regression tests offer many advantages.
|
|
A Java command line program that allows execution of test cases without using Studio.
|
|
Smoke testing is the execution of a suite of tests to confirm that the installation of the system is working correctly. Smoke tests typically are a small subset of the total set of test cases. However, often a whole set of automated tests can be run.
|
|
A software tool developed by Guidewire for customizing Guidewire products and writing Gosu code.
|
|
A test function is considered to have succeeded if neither the code under test throws an exception nor an assertion in the test function fails.
|
|
Test-Driven Development, an approach to programming developed by Kent Beck. Using this approach, the developer first writes one or more automated tests that exercises a feature. Second, the developer writes enough code so that the feature passes the automated tests. Third, the developer cleans up the code, while continuing to run tests to insure they pass.
