What's External Beta Testing ?

Answer Posted / guest

Hai.......

External beta testing offers developers their first glimpse
at how users may actually interact with a program. Copies
of the program or a test URL, sometimes accompanied with
letter of instruction, are sent out to a group of
volunteers who try out the program and respond to questions
in the letter. Beta testing is black-box, real-world
testing. Beta testing can be difficult to manage, and the
feedback that it generates normally comes too late in the
development process to contribute to improved usability and
functionality. External beta-tester feedback may be
reflected in a README file or deferred to future releases.

K,Byeeee..
