User Acceptance Testing (UAT) is a crucial step adopted to test the functionality of the software once it is ready for release. In the custom software development scenario, UAT is done to ensure whether the application functions exceptionally well in the organization. A custom software application is tested using real world scenarios relevant to end users. Usually the application is tested by a group representing a cross-section of end users. User Acceptance Testing gives the confidence that the application delivered meets the requirements of the end user. It also helps to nail down bugs that affect the usability of the application. Before conducting UAT, software development companies complete various levels of testing including unit, system and Integration. Most of the technical bugs are also fixed before conducting User Acceptance Testing. An effective UAT relies on test cases. These test cases are created to ensure proper exposure of all the scenarios during testing. T he main focus is to simulate the real world environment and how an end user uses the application. The main aim is to test the functionality and usability of the application. The technical aspects of the application have already being tested during the custom software development process, but its the usability and functionality that counts.
