Project Summary
RubyGarage refactored and tested a custom Ruby on Rails application, joining the client's team months after launch to deliver refactoring and new features. The work included writing RSpec tests and resulted in a tenfold revenue increase; the client praised RubyGarage's reliability, transparency, and professionalism.
Key Challenges
- Needed to refactor the existing Rails app
- Required development of new features
- Integrate with the internal team and support launch-phase needs
Project Deliverables
- Refactored Rails codebase
- RSpec test suite
- New feature implementations
Project Solution
RubyGarage was selected after comparing several Ukrainian firms because of its Ruby on Rails expertise and cost. They refactored most of the codebase and wrote RSpec tests, joining the team a few months after launch. The vendor supplied two developers and a project manager and briefly provided a business analyst; they were able to supply resources on demand and coordinated work through Jira, Slack, and Skype.
Project Outcome
- Revenue increased tenfold
- Application was critical to the startup's success
- Faster turnaround through Jira and daily communication
