4 Step System
For Quality App Development
Solution Design Proposal
The solution design proposal is the most critical step to finalizing the feature requirements and budget before beginning work.
This gives us the opportunity to go into full detail on every feature, ask important questions, prioritize the most important features for a successful release, and give you full visibility on an execution plan that will lead to your success.
Sprint Work
This is the actual fun part of seeing your project come to life. Here is where the software development takes place and we break the software deliverables up into 2-3 week chunks known as sprints. Typically each sprint ends with a demo of the current feature progress and you are provided with a list of release notes on what was completed. Each sprint is further broken down into the iterative steps:
Step 1-Sprint planning
At the beginning of each sprint, we complete sprint planning for a select set of features that will be implemented during a 2 to 3 week sprint. This process enables you and our team to prioritize features between sprints and to focus on the most important features sprint by sprint. This method gives you the flexibility to make changes to the feature delivery schedule based on your business needs. Furthermore, if the app requires design work, this is where we develop the user interface, user interaction, and graphical assets. In a typical project design work is always typically 2 or more sprints ahead of development.
Step 2-Development
This is the process where your project features come to life as we do the coding to bring together elements of your project that include things such as server, mobile app, PC software, etc.
Step 3-Quality Control
Towards the later part of every sprint once a sprint is feature complete we hand the build over to our QA team for doing a series of manual and automated testing. The testing here is done from the standpoint of the users interacting with the software and is designed to make sure that the software works exactly as outlined by the user stories and their acceptance criteria. This part is pivotal for every project as it is designed to keep critical bugs from reaching the end user.
Step 4-Sprint Release
Once the quality control team gives the thumbs up for the build, we release the current sprint progress for user evaluation. This is an internal build that is released to project stakeholders and will typically include a video demo as well showcasing the features for that sprint. The stakeholders are then able to provide feedback that can then be prioritized for future sprints.
Step 5-Rinse, Lather, Repeat
Repeat Steps 1-4 until all feature work is completed for the software.
Production Readiness
The final step before releasing the custom software to the general public involves finalizing the testing, doing last minute minor tweaks, and incorporating as much feedback as possible from Beta testing.
Delivery
Once the custom software is feature complete, fully tested, and pre-approved on the appropriate platforms we will officially deploy the software to ensure you have a successful production release on each platform.
