What is Alpha and Beta Testing?
Answer Posted / ankita
Typically a software product passes through two stages of testing before it is considered to be Final. The first stage is known as "Alpha Testing". It is often performed by potential users / customers or an independent test team at the developers' site. It is usually done when the development of the software product is nearing completion; minor design changes may still be made as a result of Alpha testing.
The second stage coming after alpha testing is known as "Beta Testing". Versions of the software, known as beta versions, are released to a limited audience outside of the programming team so that further evaluation by the users can reveal more faults or bugs in the product. Sometimes, beta versions are made available to the open public to increase the feedback field to a maximum number of future users.
