'''Runtime error detection''' is a [[software verification]] method that analyzes a software application as it executes and reports [[Software bug|defects]] that are detected during that execution. It can be applied during [[unit testing]], [[component testing]], [[integration testing]], [[system testing]] (automated/scripted or manual), or [[penetration test]]ing.
