DESIGNING

During the design stage of the development cycle, designers and developers will determine how the front and back end of the software will look and function, and they will also decide how it will be built.

Although the term “design” often makes us think of how things look, the design phase of the software development process also includes designing the way a user will perform various tasks when using the software and how various parts of the system will work together.

• How will a user get from Point A to Point B?
• How will a user perform the following activities?
• How will Part C of the system interact with Part D of the system?
• Such questions must be answered in the design phase before moving to development.

DEVELOPMENT

When the software building begins, your team has officially entered the development stage of the software development life cycle. As you would expect, this is the stage where developers begin coding and setting up the infrastructure for the system.

• They will refer to the plans and documents created by the design team and will work with the designers to ensure what they are creating aligns with the design plans.
• If developers run into any issues during the development process, they will work with the design team to determine a solution that satisfies all parties to the best of their abilities.
• If the software project is larger and the team is made up of more than one member, the various development tasks will be assigned to team members.

Development teams will often use communication and project management programs to keep projects on schedule and to ensure no two developers are working on the same task at once. This keeps the project moving forward without hiccups and maximizes every developer’s time.

TESTING

As the development phase progresses and functionalities are marked as completed by developers, unit testing can begin. During the user acceptance testing stage, quality assurance team members will view and use the system as users would.

Our ream will test based on:

• Documentation created during the planning and design phases
• Paths the users are expected to take (also known as “happy paths”)
• Against paths the users are expected to take

The system shouldn’t ever be released before testing is complete. It’s one of the most important stages and guarantees that our eBizPlanet team is ready for the system to be used by its intended audience.

DEPLOYMENT

Once system testing is complete, it’s finally time for our software development project to be released to the world.

Cosidering below concern:

• If we’re creating software from scratch, this may mean simply making the system public for all users.
• If we’re updating a current software system or are integrating your new software into a legacy system, .
• this integration will need to happen during the deployment phase.

The deployment phase requires everyone on the project to be on hand and ready to handle any last-minute issues.

MAINTENANCE

Once the software development project has been deployed, the maintenance phase begins. The software development life cycle never ends; it continues for the life of the software system. That’s why maintenance is so important.

If your business decides to make changes to the system or you need to scale it to account for more users, your software development partner should be ready to make those changes for you.

• the business and users won’t recognize some opportunities for improvement until they’ve had a chance to use their product under a variety of circumstances.
• As technology and development evolves, you’ll want your software system to evolve with it.
• Keep a healthy and strong partnership with a software development company to ensure you and your business are always taken care of and ready for future development.

That’s exactly what we did for one of our clients. We helped them keep up with their changing needs and saw the impact it had for some amazing furry friends.
