Product Development Processes

The process has you

Welcome back

Follow along as we describe each of our 6 processes and their place in our development lifecycle through a project to product client questionnaire, the concept we're about to demonstrate applies for any work scope, from a single component to a fully-blown web app.

How to start?

The discovery process:

We begin with a free introductory meeting during which you tell us about your requirements. From there, we create a Product Requirements Document (PRD) that outlines what we'll build and a System Design Document (SDD) describing the architecture, tools, and their tradeoffs. These two resources will serve as the scope of the project.

What you get: A complete requirements and architecture breakdown for your specific needs.

How long will it take?

The planning process:

We derive units of measurable output from the PRD and SSD that will serve as concrete progress markers and must meet predetermined conditions to be considered complete. We then estimate effort, prioritize, and combine each into a full roadmap, where the sum of all the effort estimations is the roadmap's total estimation.

What you get: A roadmap with complete time estimations for each phase so you know exactly what to expect and when.

How do you execute?

The development process:

Since each unit of work has completion conditions, we can apply a test-driven development approach. We write initially failing tests against those conditions and implement the minimum amount of code until those tests pass. This approach keeps us goal-oriented and protects the codebase from being bloated while ensuring the unit is complete.

What you get: Tested, reliable, and complete by definition code.

Meaning no bugs?

The testing process:

Hardly. Edge cases, unaccounted-for user behaviors, and development mistakes are part of the software life cycle. The only way to mitigate those for any project is to implement a process that captures bugs as early as possible, preferably before users notice them. For this, we introduce another layer of testing focused on quality assurance.

What you get: An early bug detection mechanism that prevents faulty code from being delivered to end-users.

How can I confirm?

The deployment process:

Every code change passes through version control, is tested, approved, and automatically deployed into a live cloud environment. The resulting deployment allows you to review and track the latest progress before a single line of code meets production users, continuously keeping you in total control of your project.

What you get: A continuous handshake mechanism per unit of work.

What about adding or changing?

The feedback process:

It's simple. We reiterate the same processes, beginning with the discovery process again. Only this time, we combine the new requirement with its required architecture into the roadmap as a new set of work units. We then follow the same processes until we eventually meet here again to gather new requirements and start a new cycle.

What you get: An agile code base that adapts quickly to changes and evolves with you as your business grows.
