- 1. Loops over each (input, ______) tuple in tests, unpacking it into two variables. Then you call the function, compare actual to ______, and print PASS, or FAIL with both values. Word 3 of: for value, ________ in _____: (8)
- 8. After fixing a bug, rerun the failed test and all earlier tests, because a fix can break code that used to pass. Word 1 of: __________ _______ (10)
- 9. A summary of how many tests passed and failed, what was fixed and retested, and a conclusion on whether the program is validated, backed by the results and any limitations. Word 2 of: ____ ______ (6)
- 10. Word 2 of the term in 8 Across: __________ _______ (7)

- 2. Test cases are enough when they use normal, boundary and invalid data and run every branch and loop. Missing any leaves the program only partly validated, and passing tests never prove no bugs. Word 2 of: ____ ________ (8)
- 3. Write test cases and expected results from the requirements before coding, so they check what the program should do, not what your code does. Rerun them as it grows. Word 2 of: ____ _____ (5)
- 4. A list of (input, expected) tuples. Each tuple is one test case, so a loop can run many ______ stored in one variable. Add a new tuple to add a new test. Word 1 of: _____ = [(5, 25), (0, 0)] (5)
- 5. A list, made before testing, of normal, boundary and invalid ______ cases for each requirement, with the expected result for every ______. Word 1 of: ____ plan (4)
- 6. Floats can be slightly inexact (0.1 + 0.2 is not 0.3), so ______ the actual result to a set number of decimal places before comparing it with the expected value. Word 1 of: _____(actual, 2) == ________ (5)
- 7. Pauses a program so you can type a test value; it returns text. Test by typing each planned ______ in order, then compare the printed output with the expected result. (5)
