'''Operational acceptance testing (OAT)''' is used to conduct operational readiness (pre-release) of a product, service or system as part of a [[quality management system]]. OAT is a common type of non-functional [[software testing]], used mainly in software support and [[software maintenance]] projects. This type of testing focuses on the [[operational readiness]] of the system to be supported, or which is to become the production environment. Hence, it is also known as '''operational readiness testing''' (ORT). [[Functional testing]] of applications is not to be included or merged in OAT.
According to the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB), OAT may include checking the [[backup]]/restore facilities, IT [[disaster recovery]] procedures, maintenance tasks and periodic check of security vulnerabilities.,<ref>ITSQB http://istqbexamcertification.com/what-is-acceptance-testing/</ref> and a White Paper on ISO 25000 and Operational Acceptance Testing by Dirk Dach et al., OAT generally includes:<ref>White Paper: Operational Acceptance Testing, Business Continuity Assurance.
