What is Acceptance Testing?
Acceptance testing answers the question "does this do what the business asked for?" It validates complete user scenarios against agreed acceptance criteria rather than isolated units of code, and it is often the final gate before a release ships. Written in the language of the product—log in, add to cart, check out—acceptance tests double as living documentation of expected behavior. Because these scenarios map so cleanly onto real user flows, they are a natural fit for recorded, self-healing end-to-end tests that stakeholders can read and trust.
