How the setup or migration service works
We assist our customer in migrating to the cloud or between cloud services by assessing their current environment and identifying suitable workloads for migration. We create a detailed migration plan, selecting appropriate cloud models and providers based on requirements. Data and applications are migrated using proven methodologies to ensure data integrity and minimise downtime. Security measures are implemented to meet compliance standards, and thorough testing is conducted to validate performance and reliability. We optimise cloud resources for cost-effectiveness and continuous monitoring post-migration identifies areas for improvement. This structured approach ensures a seamless transition, enabling customer to leverage the scalability and efficiency of cloud services aligned with their business goals

Quality assurance and performance testing

Quality assurance and performance testing service
Yes
How the quality assurance and performance testing works
As a Software Delivery Service, we empower customers to excel in Quality Assurance (QA) and performance testing through a 'shift-left' approach, emphasising early security checks and scans, and continuous integration of automated testing into the software development lifecycle.

This involves collaborating with stakeholders and developers to define clear acceptance criteria and automated tests based on business requirements. Leveraging tools like unit testing frameworks (e.g., JUnit, pytest) and Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) methodologies (e.g., Cucumber, SpecFlow), we enable customers to create test cases directly reflecting user needs.

These automated tests are seamlessly integrated into Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, ensuring automatic testing with each code change. This provides rapid feedback on software quality, enabling developers to catch and address issues early in the cycle.

For performance testing, we offer scalable infrastructure and tools integrated into CI/CD workflows for automated load and stress tests. This proactive approach helps identify and address performance bottlenecks before deployment, ensuring optimal application performance.

Embracing the shift-left approach to QA and performance testing enables customers to achieve higher software quality, faster delivery cycles, and improved team collaboration, ultimately delivering reliable and high-performing software products that meet user expectations.

Equal opportunity

We are an equal opportunity organisation, prioritising values over talent in our recruitment process, as outlined on our About Us page https://www.c-arch.io/about-cohesive-architecture. We firmly believe in the ease of developing and nurturing talent compared to changing or evolving values. Our organisation maintains strict policies against any form of bias, ensuring every team member has an equal opportunity to contribute and grow, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, social status, or disabilities.

Wellbeing

The safety, well-being, and mental health of our team members take precedence at Cohesive Architecture. Whenever a customer doesn't necessitate our staff's physical presence at the client's location, we actively encourage our team to work from home. This not only maximises time with family but also fosters a healthier lifestyle and work-life balance. While we're still a small company and unable to offer financial assistance for amenities like gym memberships, annual health checkups, or private medical coverage, providing these benefits is a priority on our agenda as we continue to grow.
