Beta Testing Tips

So, you have signed-up to be a SolidWorks 2010 Beta Tester. Here are some tips to get you off to a great start!
There are some considerations/best practices to keep in mind when testing for a beta release. First, do not run a beta release synchronous to a production release on a computer. Once files are converted to the newer version they cannot be taken backwards to the production version. Work only on copied files in directories created specifically for beta testing, and be sure to backup all toolbox and data locations before beginning. While testing the interface and the ‘new functionality’ is important, first focus on the areas that are important to your business and everyday usage of the application. These are the areas that bugs will affect your business the most and submitting these bugs early in a beta release will help insure that they are addressed in a timely manner and prevent down time or loss of functionality.
