Wordbee is a cloud-based collaborative workspace platform for the management of translation projects (TMS) and Computer Assisted Translation (CAT editor). At present, the company has over 25,000 unique users from all around the world.

As a leading cloud-based, end-to-end translation management system, Wordbee focuses on translation project automation. The company helps its clients improve quality, shorten time-to-market, save money, cut costs, streamline rigorous processes, and improve the overall profit margins.

THE ENGAGEMENT

Back end: Web API, SQL Server, Elastic Search, LinQToSQL, .Net Core, Rabbit MQ

Our company and Wordbee commenced partnership in April 2019, and the collaboration went on for a full year, ending in April 2020. We provided Wordbee with development staff augmentation services on its major projects. The main services included custom development, software testing, bug fixes, and frontend development. 

We operated as a part of a cross border team that included people from Luxembourg, Egypt and Greece. Our team worked on the same codebase with around 15 to 20 developers of Wordbee’s TMS and CAT development group. The teams also comprised around 1-2 QA persons each. We provided four teammates, two developers and two QA specialists.

THE RESULTS

By providing high-quality code, knowledge in writing automation tests and best code review practices, Wordbee managed to streamline all its internal processes.
In detail, we helped Wordbee to release new features for Wordbee Translator using React-Redux. We were responsible for:

• Implementing new features for both web TMS applications and API services
• Improving the code review process
• Helping to develop a new version of the CAT tool
• Improving the productivity of current API solutions
• Adding basis for token-based securityJWT authentication
• Fixing issues in the code over the whole system both back and front end
• Improving Unit Testing processes
