Talk:Robustness testing

"The term "robustness testing" was first used by OUSPG and VTT researchers taking part in the PROTOS project." -- I think it was used before, for example in the paper Automated robustness testing of off-the-shelf software components (In Proc. of Fault-Tolerant Computing, 1998, http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=689474&tag=1). Even earlier, the Fuzz tool (http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~bart/fuzz/fuzz.html) was developed and first used in 1990

"Robustness testing is any quality assurance methodology focused on testing the robustness of software. Robustness testing has also been used to describe the process of verifying the robustness (i.e. correctness) of test cases in a test process." -- Is there any way to include a hint at the definition of "robustness" in the first paragraph? I've had a number of people come back to me with that definition, not realizing they have missed the meaning of "robustness", which is clear in the second paragraph. Or is this just a case of "short attention-span reader"?
