Discovery Phase

Why do you need it?
We want you to get a viable app from a business perspective, in the first place. At this point, we’ll define your business and marketing goals, targeting user bases, feature lists, etc. We’ll also get clarity on app design and development and the total cost. We don’t want to make mistakes at your expense, so we make sure your tech solution is developed the right way from the very beginning.
Our process
At IvorySoft, the Discovery phase comprises the solution’s schedule that outlines the overall cost estimates and all significant milestones.

Steps are included in Discovery Phase in IvorySoft

1. Idea analysis
The client comes with the problem, and we dive into the very essence of it. We discuss the entire concept and figure out its business and technical feasibility. The technical part suggests drawing the system requirements specification. The document describes the project, objectives, possible technology stack, features, and architecture overview. We examine it closely and offer corrections before the validation.
2. Market research
The team identifies key target markets and audiences, conducts competitive research, and finds similar solutions on the market. We make a list of the competition and learn about their products. Additionally, this process can include studying users’ feedback on competitors’ solutions and finding areas for improvement. This stage helps us offer an efficient, cost-effective, and competitive solution.
3. Moodboard
At this point, we collect all the information that the company needs to execute on the project, work on requirements, or visual design of future software. The moodboard includes colors, graphics, and typography as well as comprises the company’s values, ideal customer and potential experiences, client’s mojo or signature, and product’s effect. We can modify it throughout the process.
4. Technology and development tools
Based on an existing problem or task, we choose the technology stack. We define the technical architecture and solution infrastructure to perform well and sustainably. Usually, we make sure that the chosen set of tools will ensure the viability and competitiveness of the product, its scalability, and further maintenance.

Functional

Regression testing
System testing
Integration testing
Release Testing

Non-functional

GUI Testing
Usability Testing
Localization testing

The process:

Based on a classic Agile Software Testing Life Cycle, we do the following:

1. Requirement examination
The team learns the Business Requirement Specification document from a testing perspective. This way, we understand whether the requirements are testable or not.
2. Test planning
We conclude on the effort and cost estimates for the whole project. The team prepares the Test Plan according to requirements analysis, assigns responsibilities, and picks tools at this stage.
3. Design testing
At this stage, the development of test cases begins. The testers prep test cases, test scenarios, and test data. The team works out the Requirement Traceability Matrix. It helps monitor whether the requirements are met.
4. Test Environment Setup
The test environment is configured based on a list of hardware and software requirements.
5. Test procedures
Based on the prepared test cases, the test team starts performing the test cases. Then, they forward the detect report to the Development team. When the defect is fixed, they can do retesting.
6. Test closure
The team generates testing reports for the client. It’s a so-called test Closure Report, describing our work and performance, and recapping the outcomes.
