Incremental Development | A program development plan intended to simplify debugging by adding and testing only a small amount of code at a time. |

Return Value | The value provided as the result of a function call. |
Scaffolding | Code that is used during program development to assist with development and debugging. The unit test code that we added in this chapter are examples of scaffolding. |
Temporary Variable | A variable used to store an intermediate value in a complex calculation. |
Test Suite | A collection of tests for some code you have written. |
Unit Testing | An automatic procedure used to validate that individual units of code are working properly. Having a test suite is extremely useful when somebody modifies or extends the code: it provides a safety net against going backwards by putting new bugs into previously working code. The term regression testing is often used to capture this idea that we don't want to go backwards. |
