How Cegeka guarantees software quality
At Cegeka, we ensure, manage, and monitor quality at every stage of the software development cycle. From the preparation phase to delivery and implementation, we leave nothing to chance.
1. Planning: A strong foundation with a clear scope
"A good start is half the battle." Every complex software project at Cegeka begins with a foundation phase. Through workshops, we map out your business drivers and define the project scope, including functional and operational requirements. In line with our philosophy "In close cooperation," close collaboration is central. We seek feedback at every step and fine-tune our proposal as needed. This ensures trust, a clear project basis, and a realistic budget.2. Building: Ensuring quality with continuous testing
From the first line of code, we focus on automated and continuous testing. This helps us to:
- Guarantee functionality: Our automated tests detect bugs and deviations before they become a problem.
- Ensure maintainability: We use test-driven development and static analysis tools to ensure code quality and ease of maintenance.
- Monitor operational requirements: Performance, scalability, availability and security are defined in the foundation phase and continuously monitored through architecture fitness functions.
Why continuous testing is crucial
Measuring software quality is impossible without testing. At Cegeka, we use continuous and automated tests to detect errors early. This requires an initial investment but delivers enormous time savings and reliability in the long run.
3. Excellent software delivery
Software quality depends on two crucial factors: thorough testing and consistent delivery. In our Digital Factory, we follow a consistent approach to software development:
- Strict coding standards and best practices
- Clear software architecture
- Hands-on development methodologies
- Domain-driven design (DDD) for more complex projects
- Use of AI coding assistants for more efficient code
Domain-Driven Design (DDD): What is it?
DDD is more than a technology or methodology: it is a strategic approach to software development. By focusing on business concepts ('domains') in the implementation, we improve the consistency and scalability of software.
4. Agile software development: Iterative and incremental
To respond flexibly to changing needs, we use an iterative and incremental approach:
- Iterative: Our developers work in two-week sprints, delivering a new version of the application each time. This allows for quick adjustments without significant impact on budget and planning.
- Incremental: We start with a working skeleton that is gradually expanded. This mitigates the biggest risks at an early stage.
5. Communication & feedback: The key to success
Transparency and communication are indispensable in software development. Thanks to continuous two-way feedback, we can quickly adjust and ensure that the software fully meets functional and operational requirements.
Meet the Cegeka Digital Factory Team
Our people make the difference. In our Digital Factory, about 500 experts work together in multidisciplinary teams of 7 developers and 2 analysts. By fostering a culture of continuous learning, we ensure that everyone follows our software development principles and stays up-to-date with the latest technologies.
Conclusion: Software quality starts with the right approach
At Cegeka, software quality is not a coincidence but a conscious choice. Through a combination of continuous feedback, agile development, automated tests and an experienced team, we guarantee top-quality software.
