What is Testing?
Verifying that your code works correctly through automated checks
Why It Matters
Testing catches bugs early, prevents regressions, and gives confidence to make changes
Real-World Example
Running a test suite before deploying to ensure nothing is broken
“Understanding terms like Testing matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
From definition to deployment
Knowing the term is step one. Using it in something real is the rest.
