Explanation:
It all depends if they mean 'typing-in of incident data', or actually 'capturing' some kind of automatic detection mechanism for these 'incidents', whataver they are...

No, Teresa, I DON\'T think that will cover it --- unless you are really SURE that what they are actually doing is \'testing for incidents\' (seems much less likely to me)

I think they are more likely testing the WAY the system handles incidents (rather than for the mere PRESENCE of incidents) --- the intended meaning of \'saisie\' is crucial to the reading here, and whilst in a computing context, the idea of it as \'data entry\' in some form or another is common, it is by no means the only possibility...

Hi Teresa, I agree with Dusty - I think it\'s probably a means or recording statistics on incidents, e.g. frequency, duration, time, etc.
