test suite
Grouped verification checks
A test suite is a collection of tests designed to verify that software works correctly.
The suite groups related tests—checking a login system, validating calculations, or confirming database operations—so they can be run together.
Run the full test suite before deploying.
In broader use, any organized set of tests for evaluating performance or compliance.
