Lead Time

A technique called lead time is used to represent partial dependencies. By using lead time, certain tasks can overlap by a fixed amount or by a percentage of the predecessor task. For example, testing can start when 30% of coding is finished. It can be thought of as the predecessor task getting a head start, or lead, before the successor task starts. Because the term is easy to confuse with Lag Time, lead time is also referred to as Overlap or Negative Lag.
