Desarrollo de aplicación móvil para sistematizar el proceso de siembra de calas en la empresa “Sande Ecuador" Cía. Ltda..

Abstract

Sande Ecuador is a flower company specialized in the production of Calas; this process is completed manually, which increases the loss of information, causing economic and productive losses. The present titling work proposes a mobile application to follow up, monitor, and consult all the information generated in the Calas planting process. The objective is to develop a mobile application with an agile development methodology to systematize the Calas planting process in the company. This project was developed with the agile Scrum methodology. Five Sprints lasting one month were carried out. The user stories and requirements were developed in each of them, and unit and integration tests were also carried out. As a design pattern, model, view, and controller were used, which allowed separating the business logic and visualization. The functionality tests on the ten use cases showed that the mobile application behaves as expected concerning the specifications. Furthermore, for the usability tests, a group of fifteen workers was taken who answered the System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire to know the user experience; the result was B+, which means that the mobile application has good grade usability. The mobile app is functional and simple for the workers; it saves time and low-cost expenses for the company. In addition, it systematizes the entire planting process.
