-
Quality
All software is fully tested by automated tests and user acceptance testing to ensure a high quality. Testing is done both in the test environment and also within the intended production environment.
-
Delivered on Time
Interactive Monkey Ltd will communicate our progress with our clients constantly to ensure everyone is up to date with the state of the project. Our main goal is to deliver your project on time and with the feature set you wanted.
-
Cost Effective
We have very low overheads compared to most full time software businesses. This gives us a competitive advantage allowing us to provide custom software solutions at a fraction of the price.
Our process
Interactive Monkey uses a lightweight agile methodology to develop software. Development is delivered in iteration to help the client ensure that what is being built meets the client’s expectations.
It is important to also describe the various stages or phases of development and detail which components or milestones will be delivered during each phase.
-
First step
Product Planning
We capture the work to be developed in the form of backlog items. You can define user stories, requirements, or features to capture the product vision and roadmap for your system.
-
Second step
Sprint Planning
After the backlog has been created, estimated, and groomed, the project team can begin planning an iteration, also known as a sprint. Here we will create the tasks to implement a backlog item.
-
Third step
Sprint
The sprint is where our monkeys start work. A sprint is usually a small amount of time, normally about 2 weeks to a month. The aim is to complete all of the tasks agreed at the sprint planning stage.
-
Fourth step
Deliver
At the end of a sprint we will release the completed features to the test environment. This means you get to see your product quicker giving you the ability to steer it in the right direction.
