Impulse Driver

Exciting and spectacular animated interfaces can be created using Qualysoft's new development tool. The greatest "innovation" of the Impulse Driver Kit (IDK) is that it builds a bridge between product design and IT development, integrating the sales and the technical teams.

The Impulse Driver Kit (IDK) is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) kit for product developers and business analysts, which provides a prototype development platform that is easy to test. It makes it simple to design and generate Silverlight interfaces that begin working immediately, though the server-side logic is still limited. This means that the business concept can be presented during the product design phase with a working demo, to seek approval. The IDK supports evolutionary prototype development and so the prototype does not have to be thrown away, it can be passed on to the developer team to be finalised.

• Working prototype at the start of the project:
  IDK is a tool that supports agile teams since it facilitates the communication between the Product Owner (PO) and the developer team. As early as the preparatory phase, the business analyst can approve which interface solutions IT will support, as IDK can only be used to design interfaces that are structurally feasible.
• Integrates technical and sales team
  Impulse Driver builds a bridge between product design and IT development, integrating the sales and the technical teams. It helps to reduce the documentation required and offers a common application model and shared specification base.

• Key tool for product developers
  IDK mostly impacts on the work of product developers since they are able to present prototypes for business concepts to decision-makers without having to receive prior approval for the prototype development budget.
