  • http://www.answers.com/topic/unit-testing - Unit testing tests the minimal software component, or module.
  • http://www.answers.com/topic/integration-testing - Integration testing exposes defects in the interfaces and interaction between integrated components (modules).
  • http://www.answers.com/topic/system-test - System testing tests an integrated system to verify that it meets its requirements, which can sometimes be sub-divided into:
    • http://www.answers.com/topic/system-test - Functional testing
    • Non-Functional testing
  • http://www.answers.com/topic/system-integration-testing - System integration testing verifies that a system is integrated to any external or third party systems defined in the system requirements.
  • http://www.answers.com/topic/acceptance-testing - Acceptance testing can be conducted by the client. It allows the end-user, customer or client to validate whether or not to accept the product. Acceptance testing may be performed after the testing and before the implementation phase. See also http://www.answers.com/topic/software-release-life-cycle - Development stage
    • Alpha testing is simulated or actual operational testing by potential users/customers or an independent test team at the developers' site. Alpha testing is often employed for off-the-shelf software as a form of internal acceptance testing, before the software goes to beta testing.
    • Beta testing comes after alpha testing. Versions of the software, known as http://www.answers.com/topic/software-release-life-cycle - beta versions , are released to a limited audience outside of the company. The software is released to groups of people so that further testing can ensure the product has few faults or http://www.answers.com/topic/computer-bug - bugs . Sometimes, beta versions are made available to the open public to increase the feedback field to a maximal number of future users.
