Answer / anjali
Alpha and Beta testing is a part of the User Acceptance
Testing.
But Alpha Testing is done when the application is nearly
complete and so minor design changes can still be made here.
Developers,test engineers and the customer site
representatives involve in this.
WHERE AS

and testing are essentially complete and final problems and
defects are to be sorted out.End-User typically involve
here.
It is done at the client site.
