new application software?
Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer
Section: Protection of Information Assets
Explanation:
Acceptance testing is the final stage before the software is installed and is available for use. The greatest
impact would occur if the software fails at the acceptance testing level, as this could result in delays and
cost overruns. System testing is undertaken by the developer team to determine if the software meets user
requirements per specifications. Integration testing examines the units/modules as one integrated system
and unit testing examines the individual units or components of the software. System, integration and unit
testing are all performed by the developers at various stages of development; the impact of failure is
comparatively less for each than failure at the acceptance testing stage.
