The key to the success
of our projects is the generation of an active partnership among
the
project stakeholders: business management, business users,
test engineers and developers. We bring our combined
practices, resources, tools, templates and experiences to our
customers to generate this partnership. |

|
Partner with Development:
Parallel Testing |
 |
|
Devtest engineers
partner with developers from the very beginning of the development
cycle, thereby flushing out defects at the earliest opportunity. |
 |
|
Letting Developers Develop |
 |
|
Our engineers possess
a knowledge and understanding of technology at a development level
which assists developers by reducing the overhead of investigating
defects. This frees developers to spend more time developing,
and fixing bugs, instead of endless "bug-hunting". |
 |
|
Peers, Not Adversaries |
 |
|
Devtest Solution Teams
facilitate daily communication and interaction between business,
testing and development by building a team of peers, rather than
adopting and propagating the traditional adversarial relationship
(the 'wall') that exists between
testing and development. |
 |
|
Fast Ramp-Up Time |
 |
|
The collective
experience and knowledge of the Devtest Solution Team allows us to
'hit the ground running' when commencing a new project. Our
technical and business experience reduces the 'ramp up' time that
may normally be associated with training internal teams with new or
unfamiliar technologies. |
 |
|
Skill and Knowledge Transfer |
 |
|
An important benefit
of a Devtest engagement is the knowledge transfer to the client's
project team members in methodologies that can be utilised long
after Devtest's involvement has been completed. Devtest
Solution Teams introduce MSF processes and procedures which the
existing team is able to utilise and benefit from after the
engagement. In a large organisation, the Devtest team is then
able to commence working with second and subsequent teams. |
 |
|

|
"In my
experience, the unique expertise and passion that Devtest bring to
an engagement has been a key risk mitigation factor for our
customers." |
