We are doing the internal acceptance test at the moment, once that is done, it will go for user acceptance test, we are going to release the Beta version on the 6th of August
Will BETA testing be available to everyone?
I would say it will probably be closed one at the beginning,and later on for everyone
In theory open to everyone, yet the number of participants must be limited in some way.
Yeah it will be limited for sure, I participated in one beta test for one exchange and it was limited to 500 testers.
Understandably. Is this number of participants enough for testing such platforms?
It depends on what the goal of testing is.There are usually more rounds of testing and for each round a different number of participants are accepted.
So the tests can include up to several thousand people.
I think i would be best they can cater tester randomly and many as they so that many can experience and many can testify its beauty and functionality of the actual technology that they are trying to test,implement,improve and achieve. I am quite confident and believe by the team developers that they have enough rules and procedures in taking into beta testing that would reach into satisfaction level.
I believe the team knows which method is best for beta testing.
No one knows everything but I'm sure they will follow some industry standards.
