Re: application database validity checking

I coined the term "database event handler" for servers that run as separate
processes and asynchronously handle processes like you describe, which are
triggered by database events (insert, update, delete).

But it's not an industry term, as far as I know.

If your code has a bug and it sets the warehouse code in the order header

Looking to know if there is an industry term that describes a program that
checks, after the fact, whether the order header and order detail were
correctly populated.

a validator would check the inputs. Maybe integrity is the word I am
looking for.

Kind of sounds like you might be searching for the term "commitment

When an order is shipped from a warehouse, there are inventory

transactions

that record the consumption of inventory. Those values must match the
quantity shipped from each line of the order.. A shipped order must

have

a

ship date and cartons must have tracking numbers. The inventory

reserved

to

the order must be released.

I would not say this is unit testing since a unit test is designed to

run

repeatedly.
