We like to share the technology we use at Testomato and introduce you to tools with which you might not be familiar. In today’s post, we’d like to give you a quick overview of AngularJS and explain how we use it here at Testomato. AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript MVC  framework by Google similar to Backbone.js and Ember.js, which helps to simplify web development by helping structure and applications (i.e. making the code more maintainable). But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. First, a few words on MVC… MVC (Model-View-Controller) frameworks are designed to help developers deal with the “spaghetti code”, which often results from…

We recently read an article on 37signals that claimed building out a product roadmap wasn’t necessary because it often leads to user disappointment, mismatched expectations between what your customers want and what they’ll get, and it pushes a future product rather than the one that exists in the present. While we agree with many of the points made, the Testomato team believes that if done right – a roadmap is a great way to make sure your product development follows a logical and chronological path. In today’s post, we’ll go over the what and how of product roadmaps and how…
