Relationship With Software Testing
Unit testing tests a module in isolation, to check that it meets its contract assuming its subcontractors meet theirs. Integration testing checks whether the various modules are working properly together. The system test is a white-box test that normally checks the contract between the supplier of the software and the client, and does normally not go into such details.

“We think of religion as the symbolic expression of our highest moral ideals; we think of magic as a crude aggregate of superstitions.

—Ernst Cassirer (1874–1945)
“We must introduce a new balance in the relationship between the individual and the government—a balance that favors greater individual freedom and self-reliance.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“Now I see that going out into the testing ground of men it is the tongue and not the deed that wins the day.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
