Difference between portability and compatibility testing

A student in my certification prep course asked me what the difference is between compatibility testing and portability testing. 

📌 Compatibility: Evaluates how the software coexists with other systems, programs, or configurations without generating conflicts. 

📌 Portability: Analyzes how easily the software adapts and functions in different environments or platforms. 

Want to see clear examples and understand when to apply each type of test? I explain it in detail in this video.
