Software Audit
By its very nature, technology can be a complex and intricate realm to navigate. Whether you’re dealing with a legacy application, integrating software from an acquisition, or simply ensuring a checkpoint in an ongoing project, having a high degree of confidence in your software is paramount. This is where a software audit can provide you with the assurance you need, while also helping you optimise and maximise the potential of your software.
At Codeminers, our goal is to assist you in verifying the quality of your software. We meticulously examine every aspect, ensuring that your software is not only robust and functional but also free from bugs and vulnerabilities. Our comprehensive software audit process encompasses various crucial elements, including performance evaluation and compliance adherence.
SOFTWARE AUDIT CHECKLIST
To give you an idea of what to expect during the software audit process, let’s take a look at our software audit checklist.
- The technical design
- The database design
- Code quality, test coverage and automation
- Data access, quality and controls
- Build and delivery procedures
- Industry standards and best practices
- Documentation review
The scope of our software audit encompasses a thorough review of the technical design, database design, code quality, test coverage, and automation. We delve into assessing data access, quality, and controls, as well as build and delivery procedures. Additionally, we make it a point to evaluate your software against industry standards and best practices. To ensure a holistic examination, we conduct a meticulous documentation review, providing a comprehensive evaluation of your software from all angles.

SOFTWARE AUDIT REPORT
Once the software audit is complete, we present you with a detailed software audit report. What you get from one of our technical audits is a high level report detailing the work done, problems faced and any compromises made (code access, build, data etc). The software audit report serves as a valuable resource, offering high-level recommendations and an action plan designed to address any identified issues. To make it easier to prioritise and understand the urgency of each recommendation, we use a simple traffic light system. Critical items are marked in red, important aspects in amber, and general feedback and “nice to haves” in green.
