A quiet week, but a good one: the biggest change is for anyone who writes about software testing — and a few smaller ones for anyone who pulls the glossary into their own tools.
Cite any term in one click. If you have ever copied a definition from this site into a paper, a report, or a study guide, you have probably typed out the reference by hand — author, year, title, URL, and the date you looked it up. Every term page now does that work for you. Scroll to the bottom and you will find a ready-made APA citation with a Copy button next to it. One click, and the whole reference is in your clipboard. The box speaks ten languages — English, German, French, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Czech, Swedish, Russian, and Japanese — because citation styles differ between languages, and a mechanical translation was never the point. The citation credits the ISTQB, since the definitions are theirs.
Search engines got new clues. Term pages now carry structured data for their definitions, and pages that explain commonly confused pairs — like verification and validation — mark up their frequently asked questions so the answers can surface directly in search results.
A glossary that machines can read. If you pull terms into your own notes or tools, there is now a plain-text version of every term page, plus a single machine-readable index of the whole glossary. The pages you see look and work exactly as before — but tools and assistants that cite the glossary now have a cleaner way in.
That is what changed this week. As always, if something is missing or could work better, the door is open.
