What is alpha and beta test?

Simple my fellow gamer. Beta is the beginning of a computer game and that's where beta testers come in. Beta is the root of the game and is always filled with Bugs and glitches. You will usually get rewarded if you are a beta tester.Alpha in the other hand is the second part of the cycle which means that the game is getting better and will alow other players to play the gameThe cycle: Beta → Alpha → GammaAlpha and Beta TestingIf software is developed as a product to be used by many customers, it is impractical to perform formal acceptance tests with each one. Most software product developers use a process called alpha beta testing to uncover errors that only the end user seems able to find.The alpha test is conducted at the developer's site by a customer software is used in a natural setting with the developer "Looking over the shoulder" of the user and recording errors and usage problems.Alpha tests are conducted in a controlled environment.The beta test is conducted at one or more customer sites by the end user(s) of the software. Unlike alpha testing the developer is generally not present therefore the beta test is a "live".The customer records all problems (real/imagined) that are encountered during beta testing and reports these to the developer at regular intervals. Because of problems reported during beta test, the software developer makes modification and then prepares for release of the software product to the entire customer base.


Alpha technology and a Beta technology?

They are just different stages of any software,website,etc. Alpha--It is the stage when a software is released but tested internally in a company by professional software testers. Beta--It is the stage when a software is released to the public as a test software & may contain many bugs which are fixed subsequently after public response.
