SHC Software Phase 1 ResearchImplementation Phase 2 Phase 3 Phase 4 iPath: Interface of Tele-consultation Postfix as SMTP server: Communicates data
Phase 2 Linux Version FreeMed / Linux Variations from Phase 1 Software Upgrading Bug Fixing New Features
FreeMed on Linux FreeMed on Open Source Operating System: ” Linux Fedora Core 5” Platform incompatibility for different software programs: FreeMed SMTP Server Phase 1 Phase 2 Linux Version Upgrading Phase 3 Phase 4
Software Upgrading Changes done in software according to: Feedback received from different Teams. Changes made and sent Online to different team Feedback received from Stakeholders. Phase 1 Phase 2 Linux Version Upgrading Phase 3 Phase 4
Phase 3 Support Team 3 (MIMCom06) Team 5 (Tz-ICT4RD-2006) Testing PHC Software SHC Software Whole System
Support Team 3 (MIMCom06 Zambia) We provided them with our software They opted to use part of our system iPath We provided them with some documentations and manuals for iPath usage and installation Team 5 ( Tz-ICT4RD-2006 Tanzania ) Telemedicine software needed for Malaria Research Center We provided our packaged software We produced different forms according to their needs We supported their installation and implementation process Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 SupportTesting Phase 4
Software Testing Testing PHC side Testing SHC side Testing the whole system Steps Procedure Regular testing within the team Testing environment is smilar to that found in the developing countries Expert testing engineer tested Freemed Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 SupportTesting Phase 4
