Project Scope:

Tracely is a location tracking app designed to help people keep track of their family and friends, chat with them or enjoy their newsfeed updates.

Technologies used:

• React Native: React Native is a powerful framework developed by Facebook that allows developers to build mobile applications using JavaScript and React. With React Native, developers can create cross-platform mobile apps that run natively on both iOS and Android devices, sharing a single codebase for maximum efficiency.
• NestJS: NestJS is a progressive Node.js framework used for building efficient, reliable, and scalable server-side applications and has since gained a strong following for its robust structure and feature set that draw inspiration from Angular.
• Firebase: Firebase is a comprehensive platform developed by Google that provides a wide range of tools and services to help developers build, improve, and grow their mobile and web applications. With its suite of products, Firebase simplifies app development, allowing developers to focus on creating engaging user experiences without worrying about infrastructure management or backend complexities.
• Automation: Automation refers to the technology by which a process or procedure is performed with minimal human assistance. It involves the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers, and heat treating ovens, switching in telephone networks, steering and stabilization of ships, aircraft, and other applications with minimal or reduced human intervention.
• MongoDB: MongoDB is a popular and versatile NoSQL database management system designed for the modern era of application development. Known for its flexibility, scalability, and performance, MongoDB is widely adopted by developers and organizations for building a wide range of applications, from simple prototypes to complex enterprise solutions.

Challenges Faced:

• MongoDB: MongoDB, despite its advantages, presents several challenges for developers. Designing an efficient schema requires careful consideration to balance flexibility with performance. Scaling MongoDB horizontally brings complexity in managing distributed environments and ensuring data consistency. Optimizing queries and indexing is crucial for performance, especially with large datasets. Handling transactions and ensuring ACID compliance can be challenging, especially in distributed setups. Managing MongoDB operations, including backups, upgrades, and security configurations, demands expertise and resources.
• React Native: React Native, while a powerful framework for cross-platform app development, comes with its own set of challenges. Managing platform differences can be tricky, as certain features and behaviors may vary between iOS and Android devices.
• Comprehensive Testing: Multiple aspects of the system implementing diversity in general, as well as collectibles, and referrals were considered as potential problems. There were test drives that revealed some problems which were then ironed out before the solution went live.

Our Approach:

• React Native: As a company, our approach to React Native development is centered around delivering top-notch mobile applications that meet our clients' needs and exceed industry standards. We begin by deeply understanding our clients' requirements, goals, and target audience, ensuring alignment with their vision.
• MongoDB: As a company, our approach to MongoDB revolves around harnessing the power of this versatile NoSQL database to build robust and scalable solutions for our clients. We begin by thoroughly understanding our clients' data requirements, business objectives, and scalability needs. This enables us to design a database schema and architecture tailored to their specific use case, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.
• Release Management: The strategy of, release management process, came in place to keep those coded-back features and updates along the way smooth enough so that it minimizes any kind of effect on users.

Results:

• Reliable Functionality: Effective interviewing process, where both manual and automated testing were incorporated, created reliable loyalty features that did not lead to any problems with errors or issues.
• Increased Loyalty and LTV: Tracely started undoubtedly as a loyalty solution which subsequently resulted in increased customer loyalty and improved customer lifetime value for businesses.

Tools Used for Project & Test Case Management:

Trello is a popular project management tool that utilizes the Kanban methodology to help teams organize and track their work efficiently. At its core, Trello consists of boards, lists, and cards, providing a visual representation of tasks and workflows.

Conclusion:

The Tracely project showcased the successful collaboration between our development and QA teams in delivering a loyalty solution. The seamless integration, comprehensive testing, and effective release management contributed to the project's success, resulting in increased loyalty and lifetime value for Tracely clients. The utilization of tools like Trello played a crucial role in managing and streamlining the testing process.
