Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001450
To identify, analyze, and remove errors, called bugs, from computer hardware or software. The process involves running the program under controlled conditions with tools like debuggers, which allow a programmer to pause execution, inspect the state of variables, and trace the flow of control. This methodical process of finding and reducing the number of defects is a normal part of the software development cycle.
