Better Testing = Better Products
Tango partnered with Orbridge to improve their software by enhancing test coverage, migrating functionality to AngularJS, and creating custom add-ons for ExpressionEngine. With a focus on reducing technical debt using SOLID principles, Tango successfully elevated test coverage from 0 to 80%. Additionally, they updated ExpressionEngine from version 2 to version 3.5.4 and revamped the server-side architecture, resulting in more efficient and scalable system performance.
Challenge
Inefficient Systems: Orbridge's business processes and information management systems were inefficient and cumbersome, requiring automation for better productivity.
Need for Flexible Partnership: Orbridge needed a flexible ongoing product development partnership instead of multiple full-time staff members to remain agile and responsive.
Resource Alllocation: Additional resources were necessary to enable Orbridge to be more responsive to its day-to-day consumer needs, without burdening their existing team.
Solution
Enhanced Test Coverage: Tango improved test coverage using SOLID principles, achieving an increase from 0% to 80%, thereby reducing technical debt and boosting software reliability
Migration to AngularJS: Tango migrated existing JavaScript functionality to AngularJS, providing a more scalable and maintainable front-end framework.
Custom Add-Ons and Updates: Tango created custom add-ons for ExpressionEngine and upgraded its version from 2 to 3.5.4, significantly enhancing platform capabilities.
Outcome
Improved Contract and Booking Management: Automation eliminated redundant audits, training manuals, and trivial tasks, making the system more streamlined and efficient.
Enhanced Partner Relations: The system improvements made information sharing more reliable, timely, and easily accessible, thereby improving relations with partners.
Expansion and New Features: Orbridge is now expanding and collaborating with Tango on developing a MyAccounts feature to make travel information more accessible for users.
