Beta testing is your team’s first opportunity to test-drive the functionality of your new application. The goal of this phase is to run the application through your end-to-end business process — verify the features, capabilities, performance, security, data integrity and workflow — and identify any and all issues that prevent the new application from being used successfully in production.
It is quite common that your staff is using your legacy system in parallel with testing the new application, so it is essential that the testing and feedback process is as efficient as possible, and focused. To this end, Voom Software employs a specific Testing & Feedback tool and process, to facilitate capture, tracking and resolution of all issues and priorities at the line-item level.
Voom Software follows the same feedback-loop methodology for Beta testing as during the Prototype Design Phase: online and paper annotated versions of the application, with multiple iterations based upon your detailed review and feedback. As with the Prototype Design Phase, Voom Software will continue to make refinements to the application until everyone is satisfied that the new solutions is suitable to your business needs, and is ready to deploy into day-to-day production use.
Voom Software will host the Beta application at our secure hosting facility in Scottsdale, Arizona during the Testing and Refinement phase.
