Maintaining web standards are very important now days. Stick around with standards help clients and developer to understand the development process. Moreover if someone else is looking after the website after it is deployed it is easy for that person to maintain the site, fix bugs and enhance the website according to business needs and demands.

The site will follow Web Content Accessibility Guideline (WCAG 2.0) and W3C standards. The website will be built using new version of HTML (HTML 5) to present the content and use of CSS 3 will make it easier how the content will be presented. There should be validated HTML and CSS coding and both can be validated using HTML and CSS validation software respectively to maintain W3C standards.

TESTING STRATEGY:

            It is very important for the developer to test the website while in designing phase in fact the testing should be done after every component has been added. It is the responsibility of the project manager to get the reports of testing from developer and designer to make sure the quality is maintained. There are several ways of testing website and according to Felki-Morris “Test, Test and Test your website.”

Test the website

Ø  On Different web browsers

Ø  On Different versions of web browsers

Ø  With different Screen resolutions (different resolution same device, same resolution different device)

Ø  With different internet bandwidths

Ø  From remote location

Ø  From same location but remotely

Ø  Automated testing (link checkers etc)

Ø  Validation test of HTML and CSS

Ø  Can also do usability check during development

Ø  Test, test and test before finalizing it.

There should be a written approval from client for site launch after testing. After the approval the developer must upload all the files on server / web server. It is best to do create back-up copies of files before uploading it to web server to mitigate the risk of lost or damaged file. When everything is completed including sign-off form from client make sure you test the website again before it goes live.

The testing phase will help project manager and client with smooth transactions and things can be changed, fixed, update or redeveloped before the website is ready to publish.
