Acceptance testing
Testing verifying software meets acceptance criteria and user requirements before deployment. Acceptance testing is final validation before release.
Real World
Before launching Windows 11, Microsoft ran acceptance testing with thousands of users through the Windows Insider Programme to verify real-world tasks like file management and app compatibility met user expectations.
Exam Focus
Emphasise that acceptance testing is done by users against agreed criteria — do not confuse it with unit or integration testing.
