  1. User Acceptance Testing explained with an example User acceptance testing provides a platform to judge the software application that has been built from a user’s viewpoint. A user will be able to provide genuine and tactical feedback, which in turn helps the team and management to position their software product in a much better manner. User experience (UI/UX) is crucial for a product’s success in the marketplace. Hence, User Acceptance Testing (UAT) is performed to identify what are the problem areas that can be worked upon in order to improve the user experience. In this article, you will get to know about UAT explained with an example. What is User Acceptance Testing (UAT)? It is a testing method where a software product or application is tested by end-users in a real-time environment. Users will be provided with the necessary resources and inputs so that they can test the application in an optimal manner, and then provide valuable feedback. The user feedback is gathered by the testing and development team and then steps are taken to modify or alter the product based on the requirement. After functional, integration and system testing is successfully completed, and then UAT is performed. UAT is designed in such a way that real-world situations are addressed and solved. The end-to-end business workflows are validated by this testing method. A production environment is being set up to carry out user acceptance testing activity. The strategic need to perform user acceptance testing: If the UAT is not performed due to some or the other reason, the issues from a user’s perspective cannot be known and thus the credibility of the product may take centerstage. Well-defined, well-thought-out UAT tests play a significant role in capturing user requirements in a verifiable, direct way. For identifying problems, it is essential to perform high-quality tests that may otherwise go unnoticed by unit tests or integration tests. A macro-level overview is provided by UAT. When the change in requirements has not been effectively communicated to the development team, then UAT tests ensure that those changes are identified and worked upon. User acceptance testing is explained with an example: Any software application that is being developed, regardless of what domain it belongs to needs to go through the user acceptance testing phase. For suppose, there is a mobile tracking software that is basically a web based application, in which the mobile resources are administered by the administrator. Firstly, this software has to go through functional testing, integration testing, system testing, performance testing etc., in order to determine how good the application is in terms of functionality, performance and its relevant features. But, when it comes to the design, user experience (UI/UX) and usability, the conduction of UAT becomes inherent, simply because once the product is released in the market, it is the same user/customer who will be using the product. UAT can be conducted at two levels, which are as follows: 1. Alpha testing: In this type of testing, the developer’s site is where the application will be tested by the testers in order to analyze if there are any last minute changes or issues that need to be fixed before the application is delivered to the end-users for carrying out beta testing. 2. Beta testing: Beta testers (end-users) will test the beta version of the application and then provide their valuable feedback. Following are a few UAT example guidelines: 1. In certain software development scenarios, UAT is performed in the QA environment, if suppose there is no specific testing environment that has been set up for conducting user acceptance testing. 2. When the customer is fully involved in the UAT process, putting in the best of efforts, then the outcome of UAT can be rewarding. CONCLUSION If you are looking forward to implementing UAT for your software development project, then do visit online a professionally acclaimed software testing services company that will provide you a streamlined testing platform to conduct your testing activities rewardingly. www.TestingXperts.com To know more about our services please email us at info@testingxperts.com USA | CANADA | UK | NETHERLANDS | INDIA | SINGAPORE | SOUTH AFRICA © 2022 TestingXperts, All Rights Reserved © www.testingxperts.com
