testihakemisto

A testihakemisto, which translates to "test directory" in English, is a common organizational concept in software development and testing. It refers to a specific folder or directory within a project's file structure dedicated to housing all files related to testing. The purpose of a testihakemisto is to clearly separate testing code from the main application code, making it easier to manage, run, and understand the testing suite.

Typically, a testihakemisto would contain various subdirectories and files. These might include unit tests, integration tests, end-to-end tests, test data, test configurations, and any helper scripts specifically designed for testing purposes. The naming convention for this directory is often something like "test," "tests," or "spec" (short for specifications).

By centralizing all testing artifacts in one location, developers and testers can quickly locate and execute specific tests. This separation also ensures that test code does not accidentally get deployed with the production application. Furthermore, it aids in version control by allowing for easier tracking of changes to the testing framework and individual tests. The presence of a well-organized testihakemisto is a hallmark of a well-structured and maintainable software project.
