Over the years, Organisations have come to realise the integral role of business analysts on different projects ranging from solving problems to bridging the gap between the business and the Information Technology Team. Business Analysts leverage on various analytical tools to identify, articulate, and translate business needs into technical solutions throughout the life cycle of the project.

User research (UX research) is the way users interact with a product, their experience when using it and their requirements. This way, designers can identify and understand the problems users experience and provide solutions to them. It is the initial stage of software design where the researcher gathers requirements from users before delving into design.

Software Testing is a process of verifying that a software design meets it’s specified requirements and it’s fit for purpose. This involves the use of both manual or automated processes to ensure that the system is functioning as intended, identify any bugs and defects, reduce the cost of development and improve system performance.

Scrum is one of the flavours of Agile that enables teams collaborate effectively. It is comprised of a set of meetings, roles and tools that allow teams to organise and manage their work productively by leveraging on process cycles known as Sprints to perform and complete short tasks until the entire project is delivered. Often used in the production of complex applications, it deploys iterative (repetitive), incremental procedures to effectively manage the entire process.
