E2E

Whole process coverage

E2E is an abbreviation for end-to-end, describing something that covers an entire process from start to finish.

In technology, E2E often refers to encryption where only the communicating users can read messages: The app uses E2E encryption.

E2E testing verifies a system's complete workflow rather than individual components.
