Shenzhen Software Custom Development Process

Nowadays, with the development of enterprises,software systems,apps, mini-programs, official accounts,management systemsand so onhave been used by major enterprises and are becoming increasingly popular.All walks of life can no longer do without software systems, and all have needs for customized software development. In Shenzhen, the software development industry even occupies a leading position,the following introducesShenzhen Xiangming Technology Co., Ltd.softwarecustomdevelopment's specific process.

1. The requirements stage of custom software development

This process is the beginning stage of the entire custom software development and is also a very important stage. It requires close cooperation between end users and software vendors, including requirements collection, requirements analysis and organization, requirements review, requirements change management (generally occurring in the design, development, and maintenance stages after requirements are determined), and other processes. Many users, after choosing a software development vendor, just wait for the software development vendor to deliver the software system. In fact, this is very wrong. A system delivered without sufficient requirements communication will definitely be a system that cannot satisfy user needs, and user satisfaction will certainly be very low.

The success of requirements is the basic guarantee for the successful development of a software system. The handling of software requirements must be a process led by the software vendor and cooperated with by end users.

2. System design

Based on the requirements collected and organized in the first stage, the system architecture and design are carried out, similar to the relevant design before construction in the construction industry. Software design is the foundation of system development and the core and soul of the entire system. Design work is generally mainly completed by the designers of the software development vendor, and interface design is also at this stage.

If it is custom development based on a software product, then it is necessary to consider designing under the functions, design, and technical architecture of the existing product, combined with existing business needs. This requires the existing software product to have a good architecture and design, good scalability and secondary development capabilities, and at the same time it is necessary to consider that personalized development cannot damage the design of the existing product; otherwise, subsequent product upgrades will require reintegration and development, and the cost and workload will be very large (this is common in many software products and is related to the level of software architecture and design).

3. System development

According to the system requirements and design, the software development vendor organizes developers to write the system code. It is generally difficult for end users to propose all requirements at once. During the development process, issues involving requirements require detailed adjustments to the design. Developers' understanding of requirements, coding standards and quality, etc., have a great impact on the quality, stability, security, and other aspects of the software system.

4. System testing

According to the requirements of the first stage, functional testing, performance testing (performance testing may be needed when the number of users is very large), and security testing are carried out on the system. Functional testing is generally carried out simultaneously by the software development vendor and the user.

System testing can be carried out iteratively according to the project cycle and the number of functions. If there is a lot of development content, development results can be submitted step by step for testing, realizing iterative development and testing.

For problems found in testing, they are generally submitted to developers for modification, and then regression testing is carried out (testing and verifying the modified problems).

System testing is an important part of custom software development. It requires close cooperation between the software development vendor and end users and requires reasonable time planning (especially when the schedule is very tight). Testing is the fundamental guarantee of a high-quality software system.

5. System deployment and official operation

After system development is completed, it is deployed in the end user's official operating environment and delivered to the end user for use. At the same time, relevant personnel need to be trained. In this link, the promotion and use of the software is the focus, directly related to the application effect of the software.

6. System maintenance and service

During official operation, software will encounterBUGs (system errors), usage problems, function improvements and modifications, etc. Software vendors need to provide corresponding services to ensure the normal and stable operation of the end user's system.

From the above process, it can be seen that the requirements stage and the testing stage are the stages with the highest degree of cooperation between end users and software vendors. The cycle and complexity of custom software development are determined by the user's business requirements. For some links with relatively simple business requirements, they can be omitted or merged. In general, the connection between custom software development and software products is very close. When software products cannot meet customer requirements, they can generally only be improved through custom development, and software products are also accumulated and improved through custom development in numerous applications.

Compared with the implementation of pure software products, for custom software development, choosing a software supplier is even more important. The supplier's custom software development experience, technical level, technical support and services, etc., directly determine the success or failure of custom software development.Shenzhen Xiangming Technology Co., Ltd. is committed to using advanced technology, reasonable architecture, effective communication, rapid development, and rigorous testing to deliver satisfactory software to enterprises and empower enterprises.
