Large organizations frequently develop custom software to fill in the gaps of their existing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions. These most often include applications for content management, customer management, human resource management and inventory management. In many cases, an organization’s custom software was developed before the availability of COTS software to perform the required functions. Custom software is often more expensive than COTS software because development costs can’t be distributed over multiple implementations, as is the case with COTS software. However, COTS software may require customization before it can adequately support the operations of a particular implementation. The time and money required to customize COTS software can thus be greater than that needed to develop custom software. Another advantage of custom software is that the customer typically owns the source code, which allows for the possibility of modifying the code to meet future requirements. However, modern COTS software often includes application programming interfaces (APIs) that provides extensibility for the domain-specific language (DSL). These features allow COTS software to accommodate a great degree of customization without requiring access to the core system’s source code.

Web application development is an extension of standard software development with distinctive characteristics such as an increased need for an iterative development process. Security is also a greater issue for web applications than traditional desktop applications since they have much greater exposure to attack. For example, a website that’s used to trade stocks may be accessed by millions of users with a strong financial incentive to exploit vulnerabilities in the application. Web developers can mitigate this risk with methodologies that place greater emphasis on documentation, testing, change control and quality assurance, especially for the high workloads common with web applications. Web applications tend to have shorter development lifecycles and use more business models than desktop applications. Development teams are also smaller, but with a greater variety of test plans in most cases as compared to traditional software development. Additional differences include more evaluations from end-users, resulting in more specific requirements. The testing process of web applications generally have the same phases as traditional development, including unit, integration and system testing. The general goal of this process is to determine if the application responds as expected and identify the changes needed to correct its behavior. The information that web applications use has a higher rate of errors, including omissions, redundancies and incorrect labels. Web applications also have multiple layers and a greater number of dynamic configurations. The testing process for web applications is therefore more complex since each layer requires separate testing. Web developers rely on frameworks and reuse code more frequently than desktop developers to reduce time-to-market. Reusing external components is particularly important for reducing development time, which can also reduce costs in many cases. However, the time needed to develop small components is often less than that needed for developers to learn new APIs. Furthermore, organizations may want greater control over the development of components that are critical to an organization’s operations.

Mobile applications , or apps, are specifically designed for use on mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and digital assistants. They may be installed as part of the device’s manufacture or delivered afterwards from a web server. Mobile developers must consider a range of display sizes, hardware and configuration due to the current lack of standardization for mobile devices. The limited display size of mobile devices makes the user interface (UI) an even more critical design elements in mobile app development. Mobile designers must also focus on the interaction between the user and UI, which involves a tighter integration of hardware and software than in conventional software development. Additional factors that are more important for mobile developers include the mobility of these devices, more varied user inputs and limited screen size. Mobile apps routinely obtain context from user activity based on location and scheduling, which is rarely a significant factor in desktop development. The UI for mobile apps must also minimize the number of keystrokes and other interactions needed to accomplish a task. Mobile UIs rely on a backhand to support organizational functions such as data routing, security, off-line work and the synchronization of various services. A variety of middleware components such as mobile backend as a service (MBaaS), service-oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure and mobile app servers support this functionality.

Cloud computing is the availability of computing resources such as processing and data storage upon demand, without active management on the part of the user. This sharing of resources allows cloud computing to achieve a great economy of scale. Cloud computing generally refers to the use of data centers to serve users over the internet, usually through functions distributed to multiple locations from central servers. These servers may also be referred to as edge servers if they’re relatively close to their users. Clouds are considered private if they’re accessible by one organization and public if they’re accessible by many organizations.

DevOps is the practice of combining software development with operations, which are typically separate functions in a traditional data center. The primary goal of DevOps is to shorten the software development life cycle (SDLC) and continuously deliver high-quality software. The handling of a change request (CR) shows how DevOps can streamline operations. A user in a data center that doesn’t use DevOps must initiate a CR through email or a dedicated helpdesk application. The operations team receives the request and communicates it to the development team for the affected system. The development team begins working on the issue and provides the operations team with periodic updates. Once the development team completes the work indicated by the CR, they pass it to a testing team that then deploys the solution to a test environment. The testing and development team may correspond on the issue to resolve any additional problems uncovered during testing. The operations team can then deploy the completed solution to the production system. This process has a number of disadvantages such as process gaps requiring manual intervention, communication delays and missing information chains. The shortcomings introduce considerable latency when transferring information between the user and development. The presence of multiple stakeholders also makes this process prone to error and delays. The automation of DevOps processes generally involves repackaging platforms and applications into reusable modules by using technologies such as containerization and virtualization. This process requires many tools to automate all phases of the SDLC according to the DevOps philosophy, especially tools for building and testing code. These tools must also be integrated so they can be used by all the stakeholders in the SDLC, including operations, engineering, development and quality assurance (QA). Once they’re fully integrated, system administrators can implement a fully automated DevOps process with many separate tools. This capability provides better ordination between the various teams, eventually resulting in more rapid releases of software.

Software prototyping is the process of iteratively creating incomplete versions of an application, resulting in its progressive improvement. This is similar to the prototyping commonly performed in other fields such as manufacturing and mechanical engineering. A software prototype typically only performs a few of the required features and may be quite different from the final product. The primary advantage of prototyping over traditional software development is that developers receive regular feedback from users, which begins early in the project. Developers and users were able to quickly determine how well the prototype matches the software specifications used to build prototype. Furthermore, project managers are able to determine whether their initial deadlines and milestones are realistic.

Software testing generally involves multiple levels of testing, unit, integration and system testing being the most common types. The tests at each level are typically performed at different stages in the SDLC. Unit testing verifies the code’s basic functionality. It’s usually performed at the class level in an object-oriented environment, with the constructors and destructors comprising the minimal test units. Developers typically write these tests as they write the code for each function to ensure it works as expected. Functions typically require at least one test for each branch in the code. Unit testing ensures that each module of the application works independently from the other modules. Integration testing verifies the function of the interface between two components. Modern applications typically integrate components iteratively, which allows interface problems to be quickly identified and corrected. This design generally involves integration testing with progressively larger numbers of components until it includes the entire application. Integration testing usually requires more coding and reporting than unit tests due to the complexity of component interaction in today’s software. Some applications require breaking larger integration tests into smaller components to locate errors more effectively. System testing evaluates the entire application’s compliance with its specifications once all of the components pass integration testing. These specifications include functional and system requirements, which are sometimes tested at the same time. An application’s design and behavior are both tested at this level, in addition to the user’s expectations in some cases.
