- 8. Challenges – Why !!! ❑ When we started 10 years ago, we used latest tech and practices (2007 : Discovery Phase) ❑ Filed couple of patents and got initial clients. Our first journey with CMMI L3 (with KPMG) was great and way beyond just certification. (2009-10 : Validation Phase) ❑ But thereafter we were too focused on our product building, and client delivery; (2010-15 : Refinement Phase) ❑ But some problems started surfacing, when we grew 3-4 fold in (2015-… : Growth Phase) … Startup Development Stages

- 11. Sharing Experiences of the Journey
- 12. Considerations ❑Its easy to get fascinated by Tools, so focus on Improvement and Process, not on tool ❑Mostly Open Source ❑Its Continuous Improvement, so don’t worry for failing (Fail FAST), but lets start… ❑Select the right project, which gives initial flexibility and time (is ready to absorb initial hit on delivery) Partnered with
- 13. Process Transition : Agile ❑ Not just – start taking daily meetings as STAND- UPS ❑ Key Takeaways Thinking ahead (working when planning, Sprint Planning, PO Synch & SoS) DOR (Be ready, before you jump in Dev; instead of starting and holding) Organized Tasks & Traceability (Epics, Stories, Tasks – with well connected components and labels) SF/SS (Start to finish, than start to start, not many tasks open at a time) Self Organized Team (Fire your scrum master)
- 14. Technical Transition : Dev Common Code For All Clients Externalization Tasks to assist better CI / CD pipeline in multiple customer environment Code Refactoring (helping hand from automated regression testing) Data Base Versioning (Schema and Data : as Base, Client Specific, Transactional and Test) Build Automation Test Driven Development (TDD) API Management – Publishing & Mocking
- 15. Technical Transition : Testing Understanding Test Pyramid No sense in having thousands of manual test cases. Unit Test Cases (Keep an eye on Test Coverage) Negative Test Cases (in Unit Or API Testing ) Multi Technology UI Testing (Web / Apps / POS) Focus on Regression Testing Test Driven Development (TDD)
- 16. Technical Transition : Infra Build Automation Artifact Repository & Management Automated Provisioning Automated Deployment on QA Deeper Application Monitoring Embracing Cloud
- 17. Technical Transition Development Testing Operations (Release And Deployment) Transition

- 20. What we gained…. ❑ Saved 250+ Man Days per annum on Manual Deployments ❑ 3x number of Deliveries than earlier quarter (Faster) ❑ Already seen more than 15% increase in productivity ❑ Soon to gain additional 12% productivity through API automation ❑ No. of hold items / stories have significantly reduced. ❑ & a lot more to come….
