Component specification: A description of a component’s function in terms of its
output values for specified input values under specified conditions, and required
nonfunctional behavior (e.g., resource utilization).
Component testing: e testing of individual software components. [IEEE 610]
Compound condition: Two or more single conditions joined by means of a logical
operator (AND, OR, or XOR)—for example, A>B AND C>10.
Concrete test case: See low-level test case.
