Methodology

The most important question to answer before starting product development is:

Why select a methodology?

So you have a common idea of how you are going to develop a system. Rather than stumble around with a Hodge podge of practices the idea is to select an approach that has been proven to work and can get us to our goal of releasing a product in one year. Of course the methodology can and will change, but this is a good start.

You should not spend a year creating documents and diagrams. You need to focus on delivering a quality system in a year. This requires a different approach than the heavy weight, document centered processes that are often used. We provide the quick way to get rid of it.

Why a mix?

It doesn't seem any methodology covers both producing a complex hardware/software system and the software development part. XP, for example, has many good ideas on software development, but says nothing on coming up with the product definition and requirements.

Our extensive methodology includes the following phases:

• Requirement analysis: It involves establishing the testing processes and software environments where software testing can be performed.
• Design analysis: It determines the aspects of the design that can be tested and the parameters to be used by the concerned engineers.
• Test planning: Test strategy, test plans, and test beds are prepared.
• Test development: Involves designing the test procedures, test scenarios, test cases, and test scenarios.
• Test execution: This involves executing the software based on the test plans and test cases.
• Test reporting: Generation of metrics and making final reports on their test results.
• Re-testing the defects: Thorough testing of the software again after the developers have fixed the bugs.

A standardized software development methodology by 4ColorDesign.com helps to provide very cost-effective and efficient business solutions.
