Magento webshop code audit

Magento webshop code audit

Have your Magento webshop checked thoroughly and prevent functional or security issues from happening.

Why is good code quality important?

Magento is the world’s leading ecommerce platform: tens of thousands of sites are running on it on a global scale. It is not a secret though that such a robust system, it’s development and maintenance require expertise and special resources. By investing money, time and energy into a webshop development and management you would expect to have a safely operating and well-performing site that offers a great user experience. A neglected, mismanaged site is not only a security-hazard, but it is also a waste of money.

What happens during the code audit?

As each site is different, the audit is uniquely suited to each case. As part of it, our experts source further information from the client over the phone with the aim of specifying the results of the audit further. The code audit involves these main areas:

Functional and operational test

Functional and operational test

We review and evaluate the generic operation and the usability of the webshop. This includes checking browser compatibility and the responsiveness, examining the user journey and also looking into the issues that have been flagged up by the client in advance.

Frontend analysis

Frontend analysis

A lot depends on the quality of the frontend layout and on the speed of how fast the client reacts, so as part of the webshop performance analysis the JavaScript file is examined, and the HTML and CSS solutions are checked.

Backend analysis

Backend analysis

Usually of course, many of the issues remain hidden underneath the surface. The aim of this backend check is to analyse the Magento database structure and its queries, security patches, the code qualities of external, uniquely developed extensions and it includes reviewing the deploy processes as well.
