lähtestamise

lähtestamise is an Estonian term that broadly translates to "testing" or "commissioning" in English. It refers to the process of verifying and ensuring that a system, product, or process functions correctly and meets specified requirements. This can encompass a wide range of activities, from simple checks to complex procedures.

In the context of software development, lähtestamise involves various forms of testing, such as unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and user acceptance testing. The goal is to identify and fix defects before the software is released to end-users. This systematic approach aims to improve the quality, reliability, and performance of the software.

Beyond software, lähtestamise can apply to physical systems and infrastructure. For example, new construction projects undergo commissioning to ensure all building systems, like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, are installed and operating according to design specifications. In manufacturing, products are tested to confirm they meet quality standards and performance expectations before mass production or shipment. The core principle is always to validate that something works as intended and is ready for its intended use.
