The IT world is rife with jargon — and “as code” is no exception. “As code” means simplifying complex and time-consuming tasks by automating some, or all, of their processes. Today, the composable nature of code enables skilled IT teams to create and customize automated solutions capable of improving efficiency.

When you're working with any code, whether it's automation or software code, it should be treated the same way. One of the many things that don't come up as often when you're automating vs when you're building application code is testing. After-all, functions are still functions and variables are still variables.

Basis path testing in software testing is a white box method where the tester examines the codebase to identify all possible paths that could be taken by the user to achieve their aims. These paths are then written as test cases to ensure all the different identified scenarios in the main branches are covered.
