Ready to go, turnkey, before "Done, done, done."
The central premise of Agile development is that the shape of the application to come is fleshed out incrementally by adding to one's codebase demonstrable units of feature functionality known as "stories." An application exists following the "done, done, done" acceptance of the first story, and going forward will always be a complete, fully-functioning piece of software, which is to say that it will only beg for desired features not yet "done, done, done" but that it will not be lacking by way of defects or unexpected behaviors. This approach to custom application development ensures that stakeholder expectations for how an application acts match precisely to how the application acts. Stories pending approval sit in wait on staging servers for stakeholder review and are only pushed live upon "done, done, done" validation.
Headspring's approach to custom software development utilizes the Agile process (and moreover Extreme Programming engineering practices, test-driven development, and domain-driven design which accentuate the effectiveness of Agile undertakings) to guarantee that custom software application development yields what it is expected to at the day's end. Bottom line: We strive to keep our clients free of unpleasant surprises.
If you are serious about developing software of value and are looking for the right vendor with which to do so, Headspring requests your consideration.
