red lines

In testing, these are changes, modifications, to the test procedure occurring during the test.

for example, the procedure says, "Press the blue button." Overnight, the maintenance crew replaced the blue button with a yellow button. During the test, this change would be noted using a "red line"

kind of like "Track changes" in MS Word.
