Configuration management

Glossary
Code Coverage: Test RealTime feature whose function is to measure the percentage of
code coverage achieved by your testing efforts, using a variety of powerful data displays
to ensure all portions of your code are exercised and thus verified as properly
implemented.
COM: Com API/Interface Failure
Complexity: A characteristic of software measured by various statistical models.
Component: Any software aggregate that has visibility in a development environment,
for example, a method, a class, an object, a function, a module, an executable, a task, a
utility subsystem, an application subsystem. This includes executable software entities
supplied with an API.
Component Testing: The Test RealTime feature used to automate the white box testing
of individual software components in your system, facilitating early, proactive
debugging and provided a repeatable, well-defined process for runtime analysis.
Computational complexity: The study of the time (number of iterations) and space
(quantity of storage) required by algorithms and classes of algorithms.
Configuration: It is a Target Deployment Port, applied to a Project, plus node-specific
settings.
Configuration management: A technical and administrative approach to manage
changes and control work products.
Container class: A class whose instances are each intended to contain multiple
occurrences of some other object.
COR: Core Dump
Coverage: The percentage of source code that has been exercised during a given
execution of the application.
Cyclomatic complexity: The V(g) or cyclomatic number is a measure of the complexity of
a function which is correlated with difficulty in testing. The standard value is between 1
and 10. A value of 1 means the code has no branching. A function's cyclomatic
complexity should not exceed 10.
D
Debug: To find the error or misconception that led to a program failure uncovered by
testing, and then to design and to implement the program changes that correct the error.
Debugger: A software tool used to perform debugging.
