Q. How does Spartan Yard handle the quality assurance (QA) aspects of a newly developed public web site?

A. First, and by far the most important to our web development and web design team is to identify what types of computers, operating systems, bandwidth and browsers that our client is using either at the office or at home. In most cases this information if complied to from a web development and design aspect will almost ensure we have covered 60-70% of the end-user variables. Second, we scan and interpret any demographical and or traffic statistics the client may have. That information covers another 10% of compliancy. Lastly, we test, test, and test some more. We test while we create. We test while we develop and we test with you through the whole process. Every now and then we also test a month or two after a solid and approved environment is launched. We do this to ensure prior stress testing under hypothetical scenarios proved accurate.
