Minimal Acceptance Testing - a term we used to use at ParcPlace. It was an all-hands period of a week or so where nothing got done except running tests on possible release artefacts to make sure they could be installed, started, run a fairly long list of tests and generally withstood being bashed on by a variety of people. The bad part was when Adele walked into your office pretty much any computer would faint; what she called 'black thumbs'. Mating season was never our favourite time but it was a pretty effective way of doing some due diligence on a pending release.
