@badtuple What you described is more acceptance testing If you have a set of functions perhaps you can just describe the functionality to a prospect and allow him to do gap analysis
@badtuple In such case since you'd test functionality of the server you can call it functional testing. Are writing api or Web site app or something else?
I do not understand this world any more. Feel like jumped dimension or parallel. Is this a noise or it has some meaning? Not to ask if anything actually have meaning...
