Technology That We Use

There isn't a problem we can't fix

We Have Experts in a Wide Variety of Areas

Our process

We first determine what core pieces of functionality that will drive the most business value to your organization and deliver using an agile process with short iterations.

Requirements Gathering

Define the revenue model
Isolate & core functionality to provide the most business value
Define technical specifications
Brainstorm & create simple mockups
Develop milestones and project plan

Test Driven Development

Determine the expected behaviour
Write an automated test for that behaviour
Write the code & verify that it passes the tests
Tests allow for multiple developers to stay focused on the same outcome
If a test breaks, we ask if functionality changed or if it was coded in error

Quality Assurance

Testing is a core part of our process, not an afterthought
All code is reviewed by multiple developers for correctness, cleanliness, and potential bugs
Code can not be deployed unless it is tested
We automate the majority of tests, so that they run with every change

Deployment

Multi-stage deployment pipeline for testing, staging, and production
Moving to the next stage in the pipeline requires automated and/or manual approval
Our client's will preview the functionality before being deployed
Automated deployment process to ensure that all steps are run, and nothing is forgotten
Once approved, a single button push deploys the application to all of your users with high confidence

Repeat

Software that is not in production is not being used by your customers and therefore not making you money
We focus on small important goals for a short iteration
After the milestone is completed, we determine the next highest priorities for the next milestone
Always staying focused on what will deliver the most value for the end-users and the bottom line
