Day-In-The-Life (DITL) Testing: Why is it important for Enterprise Customers

Enterprise customers use one or many ERP applications (like SAP, Oracle, MS Dynamics, Infor, etc.) for their core business operations.

Day-In-The-Life (DITL) Testing: Why is it important for Enterprise Customers

DITL testing is unique testing carried out to validate whether the system is working as expected to work or not. This testing is usually performed by using real users, real data, and under the real business process execution, just like how the customer performs his day-to-day activities to manage the business. Enterprise customers perform this testing to assure that all their applications are correctly integrated and their end-to-end business processes are running as expected before going Live.
