Morphology

inlining = inline (transparent) = inline + ing

The noun is a standard -ing nominalization of the verb 'inline' meaning to insert into a sequence, so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

Inlining comes from the parts in- 'in' and line 'row' or 'assembly line'. It means putting an inspection or step 'in the line' of work so it happens during production instead of being done separately.
