CAST: Computer Aided Software Testing.
Capture/Replay Tool: A test tool that records test input as it is sent to the software under test. The input cases stored can then be used to reproduce the test at a later time. Most commonly applied to GUI test tools.
CMM: The Capability Maturity Model for Software (CMM or SW-CMM) is a model for judging the maturity of the software processes of an organization and for identifying the key practices that are required to increase the maturity of these processes.
Cause Effect Graph: A graphical representation of inputs and the associated outputs effects which can be used to design test cases.
Code Complete: Phase of development where functionality is implemented in entirety; bug fixes are all that are left. All functions found in the Functional Specifications have been implemented.
Code Coverage: An analysis method that determines which parts of the software have been executed (covered) by the test case suite and which parts have not been executed and therefore may require additional attention.
Code Inspection: A formal testing technique where the programmer reviews source code with a group who ask questions analyzing the program logic, analyzing the code with respect to a checklist of historically common programming errors, and analyzing its compliance with coding standards.
Code Walkthrough: A formal testing technique where source code is traced by a group with a small set of test cases, while the state of program variables is manually monitored, to analyze the programmer's logic and assumptions.
Coding: The generation of source code.
Compatibility Testing: Testing whether software is compatible with other elements of a system with which it should operate, e.g. browsers, Operating Systems, or hardware.
Component: A minimal software item for which a separate specification is available.
Component Testing: See Unit Testing.
Concurrency Testing: Multi-user testing geared towards determining the effects of accessing the same application code, module or database records. Identifies and measures the level of locking, deadlocking and use of single-threaded code and locking semaphores.
Conformance Testing: The process of testing that an implementation conforms to the specification on which it is based. Usually applied to testing conformance to a formal standard.
Context Driven Testing: The context-driven school of software testing is flavor of Agile Testing that advocates continuous and creative evaluation of testing opportunities in light of the potential information revealed and the value of that information to the organization right now.
Conversion Testing: Testing of programs or procedures used to convert data from existing systems for use in replacement systems.
Cyclomatic Complexity: A measure of the logical complexity of an algorithm, used in white-box testing.

Please repair your definition of context-driven testing. Nothing about this answer,
"Context Driven Testing: The context-driven school of software testing is flavor of Agile Testing that advocates continuous and creative evaluation of testing opportunities in light of the potential information revealed and the value of that information to the organization right now."
is correct.
Context-driven testing is not associated with the agile development community.
Context-driven testers will use lightweight or heavyweight methods as appropriate to the organizations they are working with and the goals and needs of the project. This is fundamentally different from agile development.
The part after "advocates" describes exploratory testing, which is sometimes but not always the testing strategy advocated by context-driven testers.
The principles of the context-driven school are defined here: http://www.context-driven-testing.com/
