final testing is a subtopic of 10.10 - Inspections 2001-08-30 14:55:36.0
is a kind of testing
should be performed after inspecting

testing can find defects whose consequences are obvious but which are buried in complex code, and thus will be hard to detect when inspecting 2001-08-30 14:57:56.0
involves thinking of what could go wrong without actually studying the software
is complementary to inspecting
requires attention to detail
