The development phase involves writing the actual code of the system, developing and deploying the system's hardware, and preparing the primary test data. This stage includes writing polished code based on the product specification and the requirements agreed upon during the previous stages.
Here, the team meets the goals and outcomes set during the discovery stage by implementing a solution. The coding process involves multiple tasks, each of which has its own unique characteristics.Our developers in Mad Devs follow a set of coding guidelines and best practices in order to make sure that the software they build is secure, reliable, and portable.
At this stage, the development tasks are broken into pieces. We break down the milestones into epics, within which we create tasks, which are further broken down by developers into even smaller tasks. Going piece by piece allows for time to review and get feedback to make sure the development process is on the right track.
We set up CI/CD pipelines (Gitlab, Github) to freely and continuously deliver code to test/demo/staging or production instances automatically and without any need for human actions.
At every step, the code is systematically tested to detect and minimise bugs. We cover all code in tests to ensure the top-quality of the product we deliver.
We build custom radiators to track business metrics and see whether a specific feature brings business value:
Other issues to help prevent downtime. They can also be used to monitor and resolve various issues within an organization's networks. Alerting tools notify us about incidents and errors so that we can fix them without delays. We use logging tools to track the process in detail. Time logging has significant benefits for project management, team productiveness and planning:
After Development stage we can move to QA and Testing.
