Performance or security degradation passes functional acceptance criteria.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and open related building blocks.
Theoretical construct: explains a term, principle, or mental model.
Concrete cog in the system that works inside larger relationships.
An undetected non-functional regression is a decline in performance, security, reliability, usability, or another quality property after a change.
The term combines regression testing with software-engineering quality characteristics. It grew from the observation that functionally correct changes can still measurably reduce system quality.
The car still moves, but its fuel use, brakes, or safety have worsened. Non-functional tests check those properties.
Quality characteristics can decline while business functions still work.
Baselines and automated load, security, or usability tests reveal degradation.
Latency, error-rate, and resource budgets create verifiable limits.
Early regression detection protects user experience, operating cost, and security posture.
