I also look at alpha testing and beta testing.

There are four main levels of software testing:
1. Component or Unit testing
Testing each individual component that you create
2. Integration Testing
Testing how well components work together with each other and existing components, in their logical groupings or chains
3. System Testing
Testing the whole system with the old and new components fully integrated.
4. User Acceptance Testing
The final tests ensure users are content that the product works exactly the way they need it to.

The main purpose of User Acceptance Testing is to validate the software against the business requirements.

Typical Steps in a User Acceptance Test
1. Analysis of business requirements
2. Creation of UAT test plan
3. Identify test scenarios
4. Create UAT test cases
5. Prepare Test Data that mimics production data
6. Run the User Acceptance Tests and record the results
7. Confirm compliance with business requirements

Alpha testing is a form of internal acceptance testing. It can be either a final stage of System testing or the first stage of User testing.

Beta Testing follows Alpha testing. It is user testing and is the final testing phase before user acceptance.

The difference between a Beta Test and a User Acceptance Test is that Beta tests inform the development team of the last problems to solve and bugs to fix. A UAT creates the acceptance needed to proceed with implementation.\n
