Methodology

Control over the different stages in applications development :

• Analysis, architecture, software conception (based on UML) :
  • classes scheme
  • collaboration scheme
  • sequences scheme
    
• Development of software applications
• Scheme for applications tests and development of screenplays for functional testing
• Program documentation at the level of:
  • application (user guide, installation handbook, etc)
  • source code

Software analysis, architectures and program conception:

• UML (using cases, classes, collaboration, sequence, state, activity schemes)
• Modelization tools/ conception (Rational Rose, TogetherJ, ERWin DB layer)
• Pattern conception

Program testing:

• Recourse to automatic testing techniques to make sure that all requested functions were realized.
• Continuous testing after each project stage to check that it will be delivered at the optimum level of quality.
• Regression testings.

Use of an optimized methodology  for software application development:

• Accurate and systematically used internal coding methodology (code homogeneity and readability)
• Definition of internal flagpoles for the development stages, in order to guaranty that our clients expectations are satisfied (terms and quality)
• Optimized project management ( use of a project management program customized for our needs, management of requested changes, time by task, status)
• Management of project versions with CVS system
• tests at diversified levels (functional, volume, load test)
