10 10  1. The counterpart to 'Concretion', refers to interfaces and abstract classes that define behavior (function signatures) but leave the internal operation of these functions undefined.
11 -1. A higher-level, generalized unit of code. Duplication across multiple functions can be resolved by creating an 'abstraction'a separate function containing the shared code. This adheres to the DRY principle.

13 13  |Assertion|(% style="text-align:justify" %)Pertains to an assertion function, a crucial part of testing. If the input values don't satisfy a certain condition, the test containing the assertion fails. Example: 'assertEquals(expectedResult, actualResult)'.
14 14  |Awareness|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A class A is aware of class B if it contains a reference to class B in its source code. If no such reference exists, class A is unaware of class B.

57 57  |Static|Pertains to behaviors or properties determined at compile time. Examples: static code analysis tools inspect source code; statically-typed languages determine an object's type at compile time.
58 58  |Test Code|(% style="text-align:justify" %)Code that tests the functionality of production code. Does not contribute to the operational aspects of an application.
59 59  |Test-Driven Development (TDD)|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A development approach where code is written in small increments, with tests defining functionality written before each coding iteration.
60 +|Unit|(% style="text-align:justify" %)The smallest testable part of an application. This is often a single class, method or module, but can also be a small cluster of tightly coupled classes or functions that together perform a specific functionality.
60 60  |Virtual Machine (VM)|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A software emulation of a physical computer, able to run its own OS and applications as if it were a separate physical machine.
61 61  |Wiring|(% style="text-align:justify" %)The process conducted by the IoC container to create and inject dependencies, facilitating application startup.
