I hate the term “business logic.” Is there a better noun-phrase for things the software is meant to do that doesn’t sound corporatey? I guess “user flow” or “user experience” could work, but not everything I deal with involves the user directly.

@lmika Optimized functionality? IDK.

@odd Hmm, I guess "functionality" would probably work. "Make sure the functionality doesn't change" vs. "Make sure the business logic doesn't change". Yeah, that will probably work as a replacement.

@lmika Another alternative that came to me: "application logic" or "app logic". Testing this out: "make sure the app logic doesn't change." Hmm, that's not bad either.

@vincent @odd Actually the term "black magic" would have quite a different meaning, thanks to the name of my current employer.
