Devtest partners with clients to
manage the quality of the complex software projects throughout the development
cycle, to ensure the project is delivered on time and on budget.
Built from a decade of experience gained in the development arena at Microsoft
Corporation (US), Devtest brings our experience, combined resources, tools and
templates to our customers to generate this partnership.
Using Microsoft Solutions Framework (MSF) for development Devtest implements
its unique Solution Team approach, which has resulted in 100% successful
delivery rates in our client's software development, migration and
infrastructure projects.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. The Solution Team works together to create this
synergistic relationship through daily communication and interaction between
the stakeholders.
Rather than simply testing the product at completion, Devtest employs four key
practices to manage and ensure consistency in the quality and stability of the
project throughout the development as listed below.
1. Automated daily
build and deployment
2. Automated testing
3. Defect Management
and metrics / statistic tracking
4. Performance
Testing
See the "Devtest Solution Team"
for more information on these areas.
Devtest educates the development teams, business and testers on how to move
from a traditional testing approach to being able to thrive in a rapid
application development environment using MSF.
