Compatibility of all web bowers are tested and the validity of code.  The code validity means that all the code written during website development meet the current development standard. When the website is tested then the developer uploads your website on server using FTP (file transfer protocol). After getting domain name registration the website must be checked last time to confirm that all the files are uploaded properly and the website is fully functional.
