Software development is becoming increasingly complex as technology evolves. Growing user expectations and competition demand that software not only functions but is also reliable, scalable, and user-friendly. This is where Quality Assurance (QA) plays a crucial role in the development process. QA is about ensuring that software meets defined standards and user requirements, while also identifying and resolving errors quickly. This not only enhances product quality but also improves efficiency and cost-effectiveness in development.
As a company, Daxap aims for comprehensive quality in software projects, with a particular focus on functionality, compatibility, security, performance, and user experience. Our QA processes continuously evaluate the software against these criteria, working proactively to maintain high quality throughout the project to ensure customer satisfaction and sustainable quality.
Comprehensive Approach to Quality Elements
Software quality encompasses more than just correct functionality; it also includes compatibility, security, performance, and user experience. To ensure these factors, we use the following approaches:
- Compatibility: We conduct compatibility testing to ensure that the software works optimally across all platforms and devices, including system integrations and user interfaces.
- Security: Data protection and software security are key points in our QA strategy. We use security and penetration testing to ensure the software can withstand cyber threats.
- Performance: To ensure the software runs quickly and reliably under user loads, we conduct performance tests that measure response time and scalability.
- User Experience: We prioritize usability through tests that ensure visual compatibility, accessibility, and ease of use for an optimal user experience.
Test Approaches Supporting Quality Elements
To strengthen software quality, we employ a range of testing processes:
- API Automation Tests: Our API tests ensure API functionality, data security, and cross-platform compatibility, providing fast and reliable performance.
- UI and Mobile Tests: To ensure user-friendliness, we test user interfaces and mobile solutions. For example, we have conducted extensive UI and mobile testing in Kiddy to ensure a consistent user experience across all platforms.
- Performance Tests: Performance tests ensure that the software remains stable under high traffic. For instance, we tested Malimo to guarantee high performance for a large number of users.
- Security and Penetration Tests: These tests evaluate the robustness against cyber threats. In Kiddy, we used penetration testing to safeguard users’ data.
- Manual Testing: When automation isn’t enough, we use manual testing to assess the user experience. Feedback from users helps to continuously improve the software.
Future-Oriented Perspective
Quality Assurance is essential for success in software development and will remain important in the future. New technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning will enhance QA processes and make error detection even more efficient.
Daxap closely follows these developments and continuously updates our quality assurance strategies. Our projects, such as Kiddy and Malimo, reflect our dedication to quality and proactive approach. We aim to meet both current and future challenges, providing our customers with the highest quality software solutions.

How do We Safeguard Your Data at Daxap?
At Daxap, our mission is to craft solutions that not only have a positive societal impact but also simplify everyday life for both organizations and their customers. We take your data protection seriously—it’s our top priority. Transparency is key, and we’re committed to keeping you informed about the security measures we employ and helping you understand how we safeguard your information.
From day one, Daxap has implemented an Information Security Management System (ISMS) to ensure the highest standards of security. Our security program is aligned with leading industry standards and best practices, including GDPR and ISO certifications. As a testament to our efforts, we proudly achieved ISO-27001 Certification in September 2023.
Our dedicated security team, led by our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), oversees the fulfillment of all ISMS requirements. The team has meticulously developed policies, procedures, and essential systems like Risk, Asset, and Incident Management to implement and manage our security program. We also ensure that every Daxap employee is well-trained on ISMS requirements. To maintain the effectiveness of these measures, we conduct regular internal and external audits.
Your data’s security and integrity are paramount to us. We are committed to protecting it through the following principles:
Secure by Design – At Daxap, security is embedded from the very beginning. We follow a robust secure development lifecycle and adhere to OWASP Secure Coding Practices, guided by our “Software Development Policy” and “Secure Coding Policy.”
Encryption – We rely on AWS for our data centers, where both secure environments and physical protection are ensured. All data exchanged between Daxap clients and services is encrypted with strong protocols. For data at rest, our production network employs encryption methods like Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or RSA.
Network Segregation and Security – To better protect sensitive data, we segregate our systems into distinct networks. Testing and development environments are hosted separately from our production infrastructure.
Access Control – We adhere to the principle of least privilege, granting system access only to those authorized based on their roles and responsibilities. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required for system login wherever possible. Additionally, we mandate the use of an authorized password manager to prevent password-related threats like reuse and phishing.
Logging and Monitoring – We continuously log and monitor access to our network, systems, and communications to detect and prevent unauthorized access and ensure our access control systems are working effectively.
Data Retention and Disposal – We handle the retention and disposal of customer data in strict accordance with our contractual agreements.
Incident Response – Daxap has a solid incident management process in place to identify, contain, investigate, and resolve any security incidents that threaten our information assets. A dedicated team manages these incidents and ensures that any necessary reports are made promptly.
Vendor Management – We depend on third-party providers to operate efficiently. Recognizing that these services impact our production environment’s security, we enforce stringent agreements to ensure they uphold our confidentiality commitments. We regularly review their security controls to maintain our high standards.
Third-Party Validation – We continually monitor and enhance the effectiveness of our ISMS activities through audits performed by both internal and third-party credentialed assessors.
As a conclusion, we are fundamentally committed to safeguarding your data at Daxap. Protecting your information is a duty we take seriously, and we continuously strive to maintain your trust.

At Daxap, we have always been driven by the desire to offer our customers the most efficient, flexible, and robust technological solutions. To achieve this, we have carefully selected the technologies we work with, so we can deliver solutions that not only meet current demands but are also scalable and adaptable for future needs. Our primary technology choices for backend, frontend, and app development include Node.js, Laravel, React, and Flutter. In this post, we will explain why we have chosen these technologies and how they provide us with the flexibility and development capacity we need to deliver quality in every project.
Node.js on Backend: Speed and Scalability
Node.js is one of our primary choices for backend development, and for good reason. Node.js is known for its exceptional speed and scalability, thanks to its event-driven, non-blocking I/O model. This feature allows it to handle multiple concurrent requests efficiently, which is critical for applications that require real-time updates or need to manage large amounts of data at once.
Node.js is also extremely flexible in terms of implementation. The unified use of JavaScript on both the frontend and backend allows our development teams to work seamlessly across the entire stack, leading to faster development cycles and better maintainability of the code. For us at Daxap, this means that we can deliver projects faster without compromising on quality.
Laravel on Backend: Structured and Secure Application Framework
Laravel is another key technology in our backend portfolio, and we use it especially in projects that require a robust and secure framework. Laravel is known for its elegance and simplicity, while providing a highly structured approach to development. This framework allows us to build complex applications quickly, with built-in features for security, authentication, and authorization, ensuring that our solutions are both reliable and secure.
React on Frontend: Dynamic and Responsive User Experience
On the frontend side, we have chosen React as our tool to build dynamic and responsive user interfaces. React is one of the most popular frontend frameworks globally, and it is known for its efficiency and modularity. With React, we can build component-based user interfaces that are easy to maintain and reuse across different parts of the application.
Flutter for App Development: Single Codebase for Cross-Platform Development
When it comes to app development, we have chosen Flutter as our go-to technology. Developed by Google, Flutter allows us to build applications for both iOS and Android from a single codebase. This saves us significant development time and resources, while ensuring that the applications perform seamlessly across platforms.

These specialists work closely together throughout the project lifecycle, from planning to launch. We tailor our team and resource allocation to the specific needs of the project, giving us the ability to customize our efforts for each client.
ISO 27001: Quality Assurance and Information Security
Quality and security are fundamental elements of our development process. Daxap is proud to be ISO 27001 certified, a globally recognized standard that ensures we follow strict protocols for information security. This not only ensures that customer data is handled securely and responsibly, but also that our internal systems and processes are optimized to minimize risk and maximize the quality of the final product.
Modern Tools for Efficient Project Management
To ensure a seamless workflow, we use modern tools such as Figma for UI/UX design and ClickUp for project management. Figma enables our design team to create intuitive and user-friendly interfaces that align with the client’s brand identity. ClickUp gives us a complete overview of the project’s progress and makes it easy to coordinate tasks and keep all involved parties informed and engaged throughout the development process.
Long-Term Partnership and Function-Based Delivery
At Daxap, it’s not just about delivering a product, but about building a long-term partnership with our clients.
