How do you ensure the quality meets the requirements?

We believe that quality is guaranteed in the whole process, as long as we do every step below well, high quality will come naturally.

  1. Requirements: We use prototypes and documents to confirm requirements and avoid misunderstandings, which can greatly reduce the possibility of rework afterwards.
  2. Development: Developers will ensure that they fully understand the requirements before developing, and do self-test to avoid bugs and reduce the waste in fixing bugs later.
  3. Testing: If the team is equipped with a tester(s), the tester(s) will join as early as possible to conduct sufficient testing from the perspective of users and customers to save clients' time in UAT.
  4. Testers will also write test cases, test reports and other documents so that clients are clear about the quality of the project.

  • Nova has a dedicated project management office (PMO) to manage each project and ensure that processes are executed as required.

How can I know the progress of the project?
