Demystifying User Acceptance Testing (UAT): A complete guide
Event Archive
In this webinar, we’ll break down the UAT process from start to finish, helping you understand its critical role in ensuring successful project delivery.
We’ll start at the beginning with the purpose of testing, the essential types of testing and why this session focuses on UAT. We’ll also guide you through the various testing phases involved in system implementation and how they contribute to a successful rollout of your technology solution.
We’ll cover everything you need to know about UAT – from planning, executing, and managing UAT to explaining how to define test cases, engage end-users, and ensuring that the system meets your specified requirements. Ultimately, carrying out a thorough and rigorous UAT process will help you get your project over the finish line and to a successful go-live. It’ll make sure your system is ready to deal with the real tasks, that there are no unforeseen bugs in the system and that the product or system is delivering in the way it was intended.
It’s typically the last stage of testing so taking the time to get it right in as real scenarios as you can is a crucial step.
Whether you’re managing a system implementation or simply looking to enhance your testing process, we’ll provide you with the knowledge and tools to ensure your systems go live successfully.
