testing testing testing

more testing and more glitches, fix a few and find some more.

It is looking very cool in the setup section and the whole sliding fading and fading menus and options look very cool and very slick.  Once the thing functions as well as it looks I will be real happy.

Of course once the web applications works then we have to test the iPhone native application and that t works with the web application and that they talk to each other correctly.

O joy of joys, why is testing so laborious and time consuming and tedious!?

testing time

time to test the webapp side of things.  I have to say from my brief and visuals the guys have done a great job, using their initiative on things I had omitted to give direction on to create a very slick webapp so far indeed, excellent javascripts, slick mouseover events and very cool menu sliding and such. 

I am very impressed with the guys and we should definitely look in their direction for any of our upcoming projects in the future, they have worked fast and hard and so far delivered well.  They even dont like to show me anything until it is testable, so avoiding my meddling micromanaging impatient ways!

I have more testingto do thoroughly and so far can only find one little niggle, so all looking good.  The interesting part will be testing the phone inputs, then submission to the server for integration to the web app.

Making some headway

just received a link for testing the website app side of things, which will receive some testing once i get the go ahead from the coders.  Looking good now and has good capabilities. 

Time to start promoting with a hopeful launch date sometime in December on the app store (depending how the testing goes and such!)

Next up is the native phone application, looking forward to the visuals becoming reality and playing and testing, pleaselet our idea of intuitive navigation of a business app be everybody elses idea of it too!

is that the horizon moving...?

So...before, I mean earlier, in the beginning, it looked promising that everything could be up and running, phone talking to server and server recording data and then outputting pdf files for user to print, all tested and launched on the app store for mid december. 

But guess what?

December really isn't all that far away any more and I still haven't been given the web app to test, nevermind the phones native app.  It's like the horizon is moving away from me just as we feel like we're approaching it.  I may be wrong of course, I am assured confidently that things are still on schedule and I will receive a url for testing purposes any day now, shortly after which the phone native app will be heading towards it's testing.

It really hit home most when a friend asked what I would be doing in 8 weeks, 'hell if I know' was my first thought, but then they said 'it will be Christmas Eve'!  So it's that close, and we aren't in initial testing yet.

We can't pomote too heavily or market anything if we don't have it's launch date.  Sure you can put out feelers, teasers, tasters, but nothing too definite, we haven't got any screenshots yet.

So...another frustrated post by an impatient pain in the ass!
