Policies & Tactics: Best Practices In Custom CRM Software Development

Following a set of coding standards, policies, and tactics are fundamental in order to bring about the desired level of uniformity in the codes developed by different engineers on board. This helps in minimizing the complexity of the code, improving its readability and reusability, and also facilitates easy detection of errors. Being an unrivaled CRM software development company, we aim at executing the coding guidelines, policies, and tactics in the most coherent way possible, promoting a sound programming environment and welcoming optimal outputs.

Policies And Tactics That Lead Us To Develop Top-notch Custom CRM Software  

Here are some of the best practices that we follow when it comes to coding guidelines, conventions, policies, and tactics.

1. Coding Guidelines And Conventions

At Arobit, our developers keep up with a well-devised and standard style of coding called coding standards. 

For example, we make sure that our modules mandatorily follow a standard format and include certain elements, such as the name of the module and its author, date of module creation, modification history, synopsis, different functions supported in the module, and their input-output parameters, and global variables accessed or modified by the module.

Another critical guideline is with regards to naming conventions - local and global variables. For instance, local variables are named with camel case lettering and it starts with a small letter (e.g. localData). On the other hand, Global variables start with a capital letter (e.g. GlobalData). Furthermore, constant names comprise capital letters only (e.g. CONSDATA). We also avoid using digits in variable names. Most importantly, we make sure that variables are easily interpretable. 

Limiting the length of functions, proper indentation, and consistently effective documentation of code are some other guidelines we unfailingly follow, as a leading ERP software development company. Also, we use specific design patterns in the development, whereas Visitor and State Design patterns will be applied only to some of the modules.

2. The Protocol Of One Or More Subsystems, Modules, Or Subroutines

Our experts focus on setting up TCP/IP network communication for network module design, which will require a strong internet connection.

3. Choosing An Algorithm 

Choosing an appropriate algorithm or programming idiom (design pattern) is one of the most crucial steps in the SLDC. We choose a suitable algorithm depending on various factors such as project goals, expected functionalities, processing speed, performance, etc. 

An algorithm provides the program with a set of instructions for addressing various software-based problems, whether it is concerning the speed or minimizing the use of computer memory. It equips us with effective problem-solving techniques.

4. Plans For Testing The Software

As CRM development service providers, we also employ different types of rigorous software testing to eliminate room for bugs, decrease development costs, and improve software performance. These include acceptance testing, integration testing, unit testing, functional testing, performance testing, regression testing, stress testing, and usability testing. 

We test all the feature sets and other components with the scenarios created. We also provide you with an additional test document. Our experienced software testers also leverage a test management plan which helps us identify the kind of testing that will be most beneficial to the given application. 

5. Plans For Maintaining The Software

Software maintenance is an integral part of our Software Development Life Cycle(SDLC). It involves incorporating changes and updates in the product after it has been delivered to the client in order to enhance its performance. We carry out different types of maintenance, such as corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance, adaptive maintenance, and perfective maintenance. 

It helps with rectifying the faults, upgrading the design, seamless migration with the legacy software, and assisting with accommodating programs such as different hardware, software, system features, and telecommunications features. Besides, our proficient Quality Analysts review the bugs on a quarterly basis and immediately fix any concerns that come into the picture. Also, this review document is required to be updated if there are any new requirements involved.

6. A Look At The Interfaces For End-users

Finally, the system shall run a compatible application on standard display screens for a clear view of the interface for end-users. However, a mobile may require a separate application to be developed during the later stage.
