RE: Alpha and Beta testing.
Alpha testing is done by development team itself to make sure that the developed product is ready for testing. If they find somthing they fix it and make it available for testing to Testers who by be inhouse or third party.

I think this is understadable.


Thanks,

RE: Alpha and Beta testing.

Ø      Alpha testing: Tests take place at the developer’s site.

Ø      Beta testing:  Tests take place at the customer’s site (under real world working conditions).

RE: Alpha and Beta testing.
Alpha testing - testing of an application when development is nearing completion; minor design changes may still be made as a result of such testing. Typically done by end-users or others, not by programmers or testers. Beta testing - testing when development and testing are essentially completed and final bugs and problems need to be found before final release. Typically done by end-users or others, not by programmers or testers.
