But if you measure a particularly heavy line one day, we could make it "shorter" by making the line narrower, or by using a lighter weight of ink or paper. You could make the line "shorter" (less ink weight) even while making it longer (as measured by a ruler). Before you tell someone to reduce their complexity number, be sure that you're using something more like a ruler than like ink weight (or worse), or their changes may have no effect on the real, underlying complexity of the program. 49 Before you adopt a metric as a measure that you will treat seriously in your company, ask a few questions: • A metric is a system of measurement What does this metric purport to measure?

It is tested without being executed. In dynamic testing, the code is executed. It is tested without, necessarily, being examined. As described to this point, both glass box and black box tests are dynamic. Data are fed to the program, then the programmer or tester examines the result. The distinction between them is the information used for choosing the data. Many tools do static analysis. An obvious first example is a compiler. The compiler delivers error messages instead of object code when it discovers syntax errors or other invalid operations.

Design depends on a requirements document that lists the planned capabilities of the product. If that document is absent, incomplete, or in a constant state of flux, the designers have to make their own decisions about product capabilities. According to the traditional model of software development, coding doesn't start until the design is complete. Prototyping doesn't count as coding because the prototype is developed only to explore how part of the product could work. In practice, however, much prototype code might be used in the final product.
