Digital Quality

For us, digital quality exists when a solution has no nasty surprises in store and makes everyone who uses it happy in the long term – clients, users and developers. How can this quality be achieved for everyone?

Common understanding

Close collaboration and communication are essential for digital quality. Regular agreements and open communication channels with our clients ensure that requirements and expectations are clearly understood and met. Transparent project progress and regular feedback loops help to avoid misunderstandings and make adjustments in good time. By involving users at an early stage, we gain a better understanding of their needs and expectations.

Agile development

We use agile development methods to be able to react flexibly to changes and new requirements. Iterative processes such as Scrum or Kanban allow us to work in short development cycles and deliver results regularly. This enables both constant feedback and early insights into progress. A culture of continuous improvement is promoted through regular retrospectives, which help to reinforce positive aspects and identify potential for improvement.

Automated quality assurance

In an agile DevOps setup, new software with continuously growing functionality is delivered on a regular basis. Traditional quality assurance (QA) with manual tests for each release is extremely time-consuming. To prevent the effort required for quality assurance from increasing linearly with the amount of functionality, we consistently rely on “QA as code”. In this way, we ensure that quality assurance is carried out as automatically as possible and that we can use the time more productively.

We underpin this QA automation with a range of tools and pragmatic best practices that have proven to increase quality in our many years of project experience. In this way, we ensure that all aspects that influence quality are taken into account right from the start – from pure code craftsmanship and digital security issues through to transparent documentation and long-term maintainability.

We think software across the entire lifecycle

A sustainable and scalable architecture is also crucial. Through modularity and scalability, we facilitate the maintenance and expansion of the software, while at the same time ensuring high-performance behavior, e.g. with increasing usage figures and growing requirements. It helps to ensure that the solution can be used effectively in the long term.

Continuous support and regular maintenance of the software are essential in order to keep it up to date and quickly resolve any problems that arise, such as bugs or newly discovered security vulnerabilities. Feedback mechanisms enable users to continuously provide feedback that is incorporated into future improvements and further developments.
