  1. 1

    Test on real devices and load

    Check devices, networks, accessibility and security before release. For a Geneva company, the local angle is VAT and the expectations of the Federal Tax Administration and cantonal tax offices.

    Prototype and test

    Create clickable screens and test them with five to ten users. In Geneva, international organisations teams often feel this most around Geneva.

  3. 3

    Define the problem and users

    Write who the app is for and what job it must do, in one paragraph. Ask about it early if your team works from Geneva, Carouge or Lancy.
