French term or phrase: recette graphique
As in "recette graphique et fonctionnelle"...
... from a software test scenario document.
I know there is a more or less direct correspondence for this in English, but I cannot for the life of me remember what it is.
Any suggestions or help gratefully received, as ever...

  -> Thanks Steve!

agree  Tony M: And see glossary for 'recette'. Though possible 'graphics' rather than 'graphical' — after all, it isn't the testing itself that is 'graphical'!
