The challenge
Supporting a strategic Oracle ERP modernization
Havering needed a reliable way to manage requirements, tests, defects, dashboards, and traceability during a high-profile Oracle Fusion cloud migration.
- Before SpiraTest, Havering had no in-house platform to track software systems, defects, and incidents consistently.
- The ERP program required coordinated end-to-end test plans for core modules, customizations, and integrations.
- The Council also needed EU GDPR-aligned hosting and a resilient SaaS deployment.
Why Inflectra
A traceable ERP testing backbone
- SpiraTest documented requirements, business processes, use cases, test cases, and defects.
- Real-time dashboards aligned project stakeholders around implementation status.
- AWS EC2 hosting in multiple EU regions supported GDPR data privacy and resilience.
- Concurrent licensing made it practical to assign tests to business users without purchasing temporary named-user licenses.
