Process management systematically designs, executes, controls, monitors, and improves development work. A clear process reduces errors, supports collaboration, and helps teams deliver work that meets users’ needs. section 6.1.4
Apply process management across the development workflow:
- Define the process from requirements gathering through design, coding, testing, and deployment. section 6.1.4
- Gather input from developers, managers, QA, and project teams before finalizing the workflow. section 6.1.4
- Document and communicate the process so team members can reference it and follow it consistently. section 6.1.4
- Assign clear roles and responsibilities rather than leaving process ownership solely with lead developers. section 6.1.4
- Monitor results, collect constructive criticism, and improve the process continuously with the whole team. section 6.1.4 section 6.6
A development workflow
A team can map a project from requirements to deployment, document each handoff, assign responsibility for testing and release, and review the workflow regularly for delays, errors, or unnecessary manual work. Automation with Jenkins for CI/CD or Selenium for web testing can streamline repetitive tasks. section 6.1.4 section 6.6
