Software testing has so much jargon. So, let's decode: component tests, integration tests, system tests, User Acceptance Tests, and the well-known Beta Tests. Come to think of it... What's an Alpha Test? I describe all of them.

Thanks for all the content Mike! Having just started working in a PMO many of your videos provide invaluable content to help me learn and improve my understanding of PMOs and all the relating functions.
Ideally, the signoff of UAT becomes a formality. If the scripts are precise enough and properly reviewed, and the tests are monitored properly, then pass/fail becomes evident. However, since the system is a business asset, the final approval authority needs to be a senior business person in the domain where the software will be used.
If, by 'do UAT' you mean be testers, no... I don't think so. They may be users (though, probably not), but they will have privileged knowledge and greater experience of the system. So, their experience of using the software is unlikely to be typical.
A pilot is a limited , experimental release, to establish feasibility and learn from the problems that arise. I do not know the term, 'control live testing', I'm afraid. It may be particular to your industry, sector, or organization.

Great video Mike! Wish I had this a few weeks ago 😅
Ahh timing. It's impossible to get it
right
Is it the best Practice to allow PM or PO to do UAT?
If, by 'do UAT' you mean be testers, no... I don't think so. They may be users (though, probably not), but they will have privileged knowledge and greater experience of the system. So, their experience of using the software is unlikely to be typical.
When is pilot testing and control live testing?
A pilot is a limited , experimental release, to establish feasibility and learn from the problems that arise. I do not know the term, 'control live testing', I'm afraid. It may be particular to your industry, sector, or organization.
"Bay-ta" not "Bee-ta". :) Just kidding - great video!
Thanks, Kevin.
Thank you
You're welcome
we used to call them Certification testing.
I've not heard that term (in this context) - thank you.
I wonder if it was a widely-used term, or one confined to where you were...
My test case is measuring the number of angry customers after go-live.
LoL! It sounds like your stakeholder engagement and user acceptance testing were top notch!
