Pulse Solutions operates several diverse departments and works with many technologies. Our core process, however, always remains the same. We try to involve the client in every decision and optimize delivery time. Using Agile development methodology we deliver quicker, make fewer mistakes and generate a return on investment faster. Our clients love the way we put them in the driver’s seat with real-world advice that assures success.

Agile Software Development

Complex software projects rarely end the way they are initially planned. With large projects, requirements often change during the course of development. Development processes must, therefore, be structured in an agile manner that allows changes even during development. Agile software development is defined by flexible processes, which can integrate changes at any point during the development process.

Detailed Requirements Analysis

The process starts with analysis and segmentation, the solution deliverables are analyzed, risk factors discussed and programming is segmented so as to deliver a working product sooner.

Storyboarding For All Systems

The next step is storyboards. This applies to websites, applications as well as mobile apps. Every screen is built as a UI design and discussed with the client to ascertain the vision as well as the functional goals to be met.

Prototype Creation

Upon successful approval of the storyboard, the system is converted to a prototype that is tested on browsers, mobile devices, and supported platforms. The client can now involve system users to test the look and feel for suggestions on how to improve the product.

Data Flow Analysis

Once the prototype is approved, a data flow diagram is created for the module. This describes all the data points collected, saved and reported on. The data flow dictates performance considerations and often influences the choice of programming framework.

Programming

Programming starts after a careful review of the best practices checklist. The programming checklist includes confirmation of all the emails going out, payment processes and things like finalization of third-party components to be used. Each type of project has a different set of well-documented practices.

Quality Assurance - Manual and Automated

Test engineers commence quality assurance tests on the system in parallel to the programming process. Rigorous testing processes go into place, and every script written is associated with a test case and automated/manual testing procedures are activated.

User Acceptance Testing

The software is delivered to the client every 2 weeks for user acceptance tests. User acceptance tests include testing with clients data, client users, and often test customers who start using the system live in their production environments.

Management Planning

Suggested enhancements are completed. Security and scalability strategies are formulated based on the UAT results. Planning for the future of the projects, documenting risk factoring and creating processes to scale is crucial for long-term success.

Go Live!

Deployment checklist is completed and the system goes live. Deployment checklist includes setting up security procedures, search engine optimization for public web pages, Google standards compliance and many other essential steps.

Why Use Agile Process?

Customer's Competitive Advantage

Agile adapts quickly to change in requirements, even late in the project development. As a result, this enhances the competitive edge to emerging opportunities.

High Product Quality

Testing is integrated at almost every phase of the production cycle in Agile methodology. Therefore, using the Agile development methodology, we deliver products – quickly and bug-free.

Time to Market

In a world where companies are facing ever increasing competition, time to market is the most significant hurdle. Agility fuels the ability to release before the competition by helping to release a working solution. After the initial launch, the product can be improved upon in iterations.

Improves Quality

With Agile methodology, we promise to deliver fully functioning, high quality, potentially shippable products in every iteration. Moreover, integrated testing does not let the development compromise the quality.

Continual Improvement

As there is a frequent release and feedback loop, business stakeholders and end-users have more opportunities to experience the software, allowing them to make changes throughout the development cycle. Built-in checkpoints facilitate feedback and collaboration.

Improved Visibility

With the big picture of the product, you always know where we are and where we are going. You will always have the information about your project’s status at the level of detail you prefer, and it will be consistent, clear, and aligned to your goals.
