It is a portmanteau of "Test" and "Ops", so let's start with "Test", a term I expect this readership to know all about but will briefly define here for clarity. When we test we apply a series of actions on the system and check for respective expected results, so as to assess the soundness of the system for use by our customers -- or looked at the other way, the risk of exposing the system to end users.
