ERP Testing of SaaS Based Real Estate Website or Software System

ERPs need extensive testing to ensure each resource is managed for optimum productivity and output. Check out how we tested a SaaS based real-estate application to deliver its ERP objectives.

About Client

The client was a forward-thinking entity who envisioned a real estate website that would serve as a property marketplace. Knowing how stressful it can be to find the right apartment that meets user needs; the client wanted an end-to-end online real estate solution that would connect the tenant and owner. The aim of the client was to make buying or renting properties hassle-free. The client approached BugRaptors for real estate website testing of his SaaS based ERP.

Product Overview

As client already had existing multiple desktop applications, which were working independently, he wanted a centralized system, which solves the purpose of an independent system. The client then created a SaaS-based web application that was available for other property management companies, individual owner-tenants, and vendors so he hired BugRaptors as a third party testing vendor for testing erp modules.

The Product Is A SaaS Based Property Management ERP To Cater Automation Needs Of Real Estate.
It Includes Rent/Sell/Manage Properties Along With Their Transactions, Accounting Information, General And Financial Reports, And Payments. There Is A Separate Portal For Various User Types.

This SaaS Model Is A Great Option For Property Management Companies And Individuals To Manage Their Residential And Commercial Properties Easily.

Product Challenges

As The Application Was Upgraded, The New System Had To Be Verified And Compared In Terms Of Functionalities And Features In The Current System And The Previous System.
It Was Ensured That Everything Works As Expected In The New System And There Are No Loopholes.

It Was Challenging To Test A Real Estate Application Having Very Vast Scope In All Aspects Of Performance And Quality.
Manually Testing Of Every Feature And Functionality Was Costly And Time-Consuming, So It Was Another Hurdle On The Way To Accomplish The Goal.0

Application Had Huge Amount Of Records And Reporting Which Was The Main USP Of An Application. It Was A Tedious Task To Test So Many(In Lacs) Records In A Set Time Frame.
All Reports Were Real-Time And To Check Each Instance Of Change In The System Via Reporting Was Time-Consuming.

The System Was Up And Running, And Live Users Were Using The App. It Was A Challenge For Our Testers To Keep The Data Intact And Ensure The Data Is In Equivalence With The Live Application.
Data Migration From The Old System To New System; The Data Required Evaluation And Analysis Under A New Environment.

Security of a mobile app is required to check the encryption/ decryption techniques used for the critical data communication over the app. Recent research from Arxan(An American technology company specialize in anti-tamper and digital rights management (DRM) for IoT, mobile, and other applications.) says:

As Mentioned Earlier, The Client Had Certain Desktop Applications, And The Client Wanted A Centralized System.
It Was A Challenge To Ensure The New System Delivers Faster Performance.
