Note: In projects the acceptance test plan can be prepared by numerous inputs.
It is not necessary that the above list be the only criteria. If you think you have
something extra to add, go ahead.
The following diagram shows the most common inputs used to prepare
acceptance test plans.

(B) what’s the relatIonshIp Between envIronment
realIty and test phases?
Environment reality becomes more important as test phases start moving
ahead. For instance, during unit testing you need the environment to be partly
real, but at the acceptance phase you should have a 100% real environment,
or we can say it should be the actual real environment. The following graph
shows how with every phase the environment reality should also increase and
finally during acceptance it should be 100% real.
