Environments

Your test enviornment can be a needless point of failure for your software project. Every delay to the progress of your projects costs your organisation time and money. Are you familiar with any of the following project issues?

  • Software build issues - e.g. the software fails to build as there is no dedicated build environment.
  • Software installation issues - e.g. the software fails to install on site as it was never verified on a replicated production environment.
  • Test configuration issues - e.g. down time as the test environment is not configured correctly.
  • Regression issues - unable to adequately test a bug fix as the environment is no longer available for that version of the software.

Your approach to the management of your development and test environments pose the risk of delaying key project tasks during the critical path. Any delay on your project impacts on the quality and timing of the final release to your customer.

Your development and test environment is one area that EQE can easily optimise to allow for a more efficient delivery. A rethink about your environments can save days and even weeks of down time on your software project and allow the time scheduled for key tasks to go ahead as planned.

Some of the key benefits to an EQE environment strategy are:

  • Separate environments that reflect key risks and reduce a critical point of failure for a project area or phase.
  • Optimise development times with dedicated environments.
  • Vast reduction in installation and deployment issues as they have been verified prior to final delivery.
  • Vast reduction in needless downtime for staff during the critical path of your projects.
  • Vast reduction in risk of slipped deadlines.
  • Elimination of the risk of delaying corrupted software releases.

EQE can review your current project environment approach. EQE identify and source alternatives to help enhance your staff's ability to deliver on their project commitments. EQE will reduce the risk of needless delays in the software project and reduce confidence sapping delays on deploying on your client site.
