Use representative test data
Empty screens and ideal inputs can miss real problems. Test long names, missing values, repeated actions, and larger records so the app behaves predictably in ordinary use. Check whether the comparison covers a similar sales cycle.
Test navigation and task flow with intended users. Feedback on a simple prototype can prevent expensive revisions later. Explain why a change was made, not just when it happened.
A limited first release
Separate essential tasks from later features. Build the smallest release that can be used and evaluated, with explicit exclusions and a change process. Choose the next task from the review rather than repeating the calendar.
Collect only data needed for the task, document access roles, and plan deletion and recovery. Security should be considered while designing the workflow. Check the rights to photographs, quotations, and licensed material.
