Pending code updates trigger exhaustive testing, full site audit and ongoing monitoring
About American Guild of Musical Artists
Faced with impending and mandatory codebase updates on their WordPress website, AGMA engaged with Freshy to evaluate the extent to which the updates would affect the front-facing website functionality and overall user experience. Freshy ran extensive testing on the site, including a simulation of the exact codebase updates. From there we reviewed each page and all functionality on the site to determine what if anything would be affected by the code modifications.
In addition, Freshy performed an audit and analysis of the existing website framework to better understand the risks of the code update and how to best manage the site on an ongoing basis. After that was completed we presented our findings to the AGMA team and provided several recommendations on how to approach each issue and how to address the site as a whole with the upcoming code updates.
Key website features
Freshy did a deep dive into the framework and setup of AGMA’s website to identify what may pose major issues during the code updates as well as what proactive improvements could be made. We reviewed plugins, pages, post types, and functionality and were able to provide the AGMA team with a list of recommendations. The goal of the cleanup efforts was not only to assist with the code updates but also the overall long term health of the site as well.
To ensure that the AGMA site stays functioning properly during the code update window and the organization’s busy membership season, Freshy recommended weekly testing and round the clock monitoring for malware or downtime. Each week the Freshy team manually performs testing on all aspects of the website functionality to confirm expected performance. If any issues arise, we would quickly be able to identify the issue and restore functionality.
Meet the Freshy team who brought this project to life
The whole team at AGMA has been professional, responsive, and easy to work with. After running a full infrastructure audit on their existing site and offering our recommendations, AGMA staff were engaged and open-minded about the solutions we offered. They have consistently provided clear and timely feedback to help us ensure their operations continue to run smoothly. We are thrilled to have them as a retained services client with their own custom projects workboard and we look forward to improving upon the existing tools and user experience of the site.
