??? The browser test covers all the .html code, the spelling, graphics, plug-ins, client-side scripts,
applets, components, and compatibility issues which browsers throw up. The baseline of this test

the site supports. Wise companies will also have a series of card mockups used by graphic designers

and pass on requests to application objects. The baseline of the test is the set of server side scripts
which pass requests to the rest of the system. See section 5.5.3.
??? The application tests covers the application objects and their relations with the database(s) and
the legacy applications. The baseline of the test is the set of application specifications and interface
definitions. See Chapter 8.
