Title: Beta testing a large game
Post by: Dave Gilbert on Mon 02/06/2003 15:08:44
Would you recommending testing it one section at a time?  Or should I wait until the game is complete before getting it tested?

I would reccomend testing it stage at a time, then when done fully test the whole thing... so do both.

But if you must choose i would reccomend test in stages.

I'm willing to do beta testing if you need it.

I say the best way is to test in parts, and then do a couple of tests when it's done to make sure everything is right. You can't miss a bug that way.
Also, find people to test the game.

Cool.  The game is split up into three chapters/days, so it'll be easy to split up the testing that way.

I'm quite far from finishing the first segment yet, but I'll let y'all know once I do.  :)

What kind of game requires this much labour? Making an epic, Dave? I look foward to it.

I'm also willing to beta. I also think testing by stages is important, because it's easier to cover all ground and thus find bugs. You can get a bit lost beta testing a full-length game...

Thanks guys!  I'll definitely know where to turn when I'm ready to test it.  It won't be for awhile, though...
