What is the difference between alpha and beta testing

Answer Posted / mercy

Alpha testing is an internal acceptance testing. This is
simulated or actual operational testing by users/customers
or dedicated test team at the developer's site.

Beta testing comes after alpha testing. Versions of
developed sotware called beta versions are released to
limited audience outside of the company. Sometimes these
versions are released to the public to increase feedback
fields for the future users.
