After Alpha testing has ended, the application enters the Beta phase of development and testing. When in Beta, the application is at least 90% completed and is release to users as the Minimal Marketable Product (MMP). During Beta testing, users are asked to provide feedback on the design, functionality, and usability of the tool. Beta testing is also done to find and address minor bugs, as well as bugs that may have been missed in Alpha testing.<ref>“What Is Beta Testing?
