Guidelines for UAT


1. Requirements will change
2. Staff to test
3. Have acceptance testers check for usability
issues early-on
4. Make time to test
5. Establish law and order with a shared test
management tool
6. Create new test cases as requirements change
7. Separate test environment
8. “Typical” is not always realistic – it takes time to
create test data
