Reverse Walkthrough
A reverse walkthrough is a process in which the reader or consumer of a technical product takes the author through it. A reverse walkthrough is a confirmation that the consumers of a technical product have the same understanding as the author of that product. The author(s) ask questions about the content to confirm that the reader has understood it.
This is common in software engineering for software reviews or use case/ business process reviews when the developer reads the source/use case/process back to the author.
The reverse walkthrough should be made when the consumers of the technical product have reviewed it and there is a risk that their understanding may not be reflective of the original intent.

Famous quotes containing the word reverse:
“Now listen, buddy, there are a few corny ideas you got to get out of your head if you’re going to fly an airplane. Most things are just the reverse from what people think. The higher you are the safer you are. The Earth down there, that, that’s your enemy because once you hit that, boy, you splatter.”
—Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
