testing - what is mean by development site & customer site? -


In the testing process, the alpha testing is done in the development site and the beta test is carried out in the customer site. Please explain with the example of what "development site" and "customer site" mean.

development site is where you are developing yourself. You may be testing on your own server alpha test is a test that is done by the development organization.

Customer Site is where the customer will use the system you develop. This test is done on their server. Beta testing is a test that is done by users. They are those who have the ability to use and enable the system.

For example, you are doing a program for Acme Corporation. You develop in your offices against the database server that you maintain. This is the development site that you are testing here.

Then when you are happy with your test, you can deploy your application on a single corporation server. This allows the customer to have access to your program so they can test. It ensures that any hardware or configuration problems on machines running on the machine can be ironed before it goes live.

If you do not test on the customer site, you can meet in all, while living, like the trouble, say that you install the application on live live date, you suddenly know that the customers Nearly TCP / IP is not installed on their network, and they are running MS-DOS and their hard drive has 100 MB capacity when your app takes 3 gig. And anyway your customers are all from Mongolia and can not speak English, which are written in all your labels and help files and error messages!

You will be in great trouble!
