The Metex Application Modernization Process |
| |
|
The Metex Application Modernization solution uses a combination of advanced automated tools,
sophisticated modernization technologies and professional services to produce a high-quality,
native style, multi-tier modern Java or .NET application.
To effectively manage the modernization process through the entire project duration, Metex
developed ClearView, a comprehensive web-enabled project management system that captures all project
activity, documents all test cases and provides a clear view of daily project activity, test case
status and issue tracking. Metex clients have online ClearView access throughout the modernization
project to facilitate issue management, interaction with Metex project resources and provide full
visibility of the modernization progress.
The Metex modernization process consists of six project stages that were designed to collectively ensure
that the final solution is a functional, fully-tested, enhanced, modern application that meets all client
requirements and expectations.
