Custom iPhone development for Education Industry

Smartphones and tablet computers have radically transformed how knowledge gets accessed and shared. They have made it possible for us to stay connected with near-infinite volumes of data and information. Mobile devices can be used not only for consuming information but can also be used for creating information as well.

However new ideas and inventions only become innovations when they get adopted and utilized by the market While mobile technologies such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants) and digital music players have become ubiquitous, they are yet to find widespread acceptance as pedagogical tools in higher education. The education industry now needs new models and better frameworks to adapt mobile learning and avoid losing touch with the radically evolving needs of the current population. Like the television and computers which preceded it, mobile technology challenges educators to respond and ensure that their work is relevant to students.

There has been a mixed response to early adaptation of smartphones for children by schools .Although the prospect of having access to all the world's information from a handheld device sounds infectious and can make a huge difference to child’s learning, a lot of the schools have felt the need to be in control of what the children are learning and on the use of these devices . The obvious distractions of being connected at all times are worrisome to many college professors.

Some of the benefits of using smartphones in education include enabling learners and teachers to interact with each another anywhere, anytime. Both parties have access to infinite data which  enables them to make more informed decisions. Use of required applications can enable the  users to manage their business hours efficiently, manage their projects/commitments  and improve their overall productivity .The ability to get connected to a network, anywhere anytime, enables them to interact with each other, share ideas, have online conferences/meetings etc. which besides saving time and effort  has endless other benefits.

Selenium Testing Services

Selenium testing services enable you to automate the testing of your web application across different web browsers and operating systems – faster and at less cost. Basic record-and-playback interactions with the browser can be done without learning any test scripting language. However, Selenium also provides programming language specific bindings to drive a browser for more powerful test automation possibilities.

What is Selenium

In essence, Selenium is a suite of open-source tools to automate web browsers. This power is taken advantage of by many popular organizations around the world today to create robust browser-based test automation. Apart from having become (or becoming) a native part of popular browsers, Selenium is also behind many other browser automation tools, frameworks, and APIs. Selenium is increasingly used by automation testers and organizations around the world for automating the GUI and functionality testing of web applications. 

Selenium Automation Testing Advantages

With the proliferation of web-based applications and agile development practices, using software tools to run repeatable regression tests is becoming increasingly common. There are a number of proprietary and open-source test automation tools available in the market today. Selenium is arguably the most widely used open-source solution for automated testing of web applications. Automation tools like Selenium facilitate unlimited iterations of test case execution, frequent regression testing, customized defect reporting, support for agile and responsive software processes, finding bugs missed by manual testing, etc.

Primary Tools in the Selenium Suite

Selenium IDE, a Firefox add-on, is used for simple record-and-playback interactions with the browser to create quick scripts for bug reproduction and aiding exploratory testing. Selenium WebDriver lets you leverage the power of multiple programming languages (e.g. C#, Java, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby) to drive web browsers to create robust regression automation and scale / distribute test scripts across many environments. Selenium WebDriver is the successor of Selenium Remote Control. Selenium WebDriver better supports dynamic web pages where page elements may change through Ajax without a page refresh.

WordPress Site for a Watch Company

And here is a detailed account of how Mindfire Solutions designed a WordPress Site for a Watch Company. 

Mindfire Solutions has an exceptionally talented team of WordPress development experts who have had a good exposure to a number of industries. One of our customers is a reputed IT solutions provider from the United States of America who hired our services to design a website for them. The website was to be designed for their client who happened to be a luxury goods (watches) manufacturer from Europe.

The customer already had an existing design in mind and wanted us to create the website in the exact fashion. Also, he first wanted us to develop a customized WordPress theme for the website and eventually integrate a customized WordPress eCommerce plug-in on the website.

The e-commerce plug-in had to be integrated with USPS services for Shipping Label return andalong with it they would use the Authorize.net shipping gateway which will be hosted on a Unix server. We had to add the pertinent content to the website which included the watch images, prices, descriptions etc. as provided by the end customer. The website that we had to create was to be loosely based on yet another internationally renowned watchmaker’s website complete with scroll navigation etc. for an enhanced user experience. We were supposed to add two links on the Collections page, one to the Cancellation policy and another to the Shipping details which will appear as simple pop-ups. The concerned website should also have a Wishlist in order to enable visitors to save items for a future purchase.

Our expert WordPress developers deftly picked up the website requirements and created the complete website in a very short span of time. We also innovated a little by adding filter functionality based on Price, Category, Casings, etc on the product listing page. The customer was extremely pleased with the end result and has been giving us repeat business not just for WordPress, but for other technologies as well which includes Flex, shopify and web based mobile apps development.

There are several web design and web development companies which specialize in creating custom web sites and custom WordPress themes all over the world. Mindfire Solutions, a 12-year old leading Software Development and IT services company from India with a strong track record of working with SMBs, has established itself as a professional WordPress development services provider and is one of the leaders in providing reliable offshore WordPress development services. Mindfire’s team of 20+ experienced WordPress developers offer experience, expertise and a sense of security to your business, having successfully executed more than 120 WordPress projects over the last 5 years for a basket of industries.
