Dynamic Analysis: A method used in software testing where programs are executed in real-time to identify potential defects or errors. Unlike static analysis, which is performed without running the code, dynamic analysis tests the software’s behavior under various conditions and inputs to find issues such as memory leaks, race conditions, or security vulnerabilities. It is an essential part of the quality assurance process, being able to simulate actual operating conditions and user interactions.
