Code walkthrough

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Code walkthrough is the process of thinking through a problem related to computer programs under development. It is often used in the software industry and describes the verification of algorithms and source code . In this verification one follows paths through the algorithm or source code which are determined by the preconditions and the possible decisions made by the user.

The purpose of a walkthrough is to determine whether the algorithm or source code meets the requirements .

The cognitive walkthrough is very similar to the code walkthrough , in which the problem solution is only thought through theoretically with the help of a computer program.
