Dynamic analysis is a method used in software development to evaluate a program's behavior during execution. This technique involves running the program in a controlled environment to observe how it interacts with system resources, memory, and other components. By monitoring these interactions, developers can identify issues such as memory leaks, performance bottlenecks, and security vulnerabilities. Unlike static analysis, which examines code without executing it, dynamic analysis provides real-time insights into how a program operates. Tools used for dynamic analysis, such as profilers and debuggers, help developers understand the runtime characteristics of their software, leading to improved performance and reliability.
