Testing Phases

Testing phases are steps used to ensure a product or software works correctly before it’s released. First, testing begins internally—developers check for bugs and issues (unit and integration testing). Then, a broader group, like quality assurance teams, tests the product in real-world scenarios (system testing). After fixing issues, users or stakeholders may test it again (user acceptance testing) to confirm it meets their needs. Each phase helps identify problems early, ensuring the final product is reliable, functional, and ready for customers. This structured approach minimizes risks and improves quality.
