WHY PREVIEW OR β-VERSION OF ANY SOFTWARE?
Often we have a no .of applications in our system with β -version.So, the question is "what is β-version" and "why we have β-version".
Answer is simple and its because of Testing.Shocked !!!
Let me clear it. Actually in software engineering, every time when we develop a new software, we have to test it in terms of verification and validation. We have two type of testing, α-testing and β-testing. α-testing is done on developer site by a client while β-testing is done on client side by a client.
For better understanding, consider the example of Microsoft Windows. Before launching actual product every time Microsoft releases its preview. Reason is that they can catch the bugs or errors before deploying actual product in market. Hence these people consider β-testing and release β-version products and therefore we often have β-products.
Stay with me for more. Have a nice day.
