BRISBANE, Australia, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Jentla, the online platform based on Joomla open source, has started works on the first global Software Development Accreditation program to acknowledge the maturity of Joomla and the Jentla suite.

Developers will be able to gain the Jentla Certified endorsement, based on Joomla, the widely accepted open-source content management system (CMS). Accreditation to the Jentla Software Certification program provides developers and end-user organisations around the world with standardised product and service quality assurance.

Both Jentla and Joomla have gained widespread international adoption by public and private sector organisations. The Jentla web platform, an enterprise layer based on Joomla, provides a strong, flexible engine for building agile multi-site web properties, such as video, e-commerce, internet and intranets through its Jentla N, Jentla E, and Jentla V products.

To qualify for the Jentla Software Certification, developers will install and run the certification testing tool within their Joomla site. The freely downloadable tool will detect all Joomla extensions and run it's code quality and security tests automatically.

Jentla has dedicated five software developers to administer the certification process. Andrew Eddie, Joomla Founder and Joomla Production Leadership Team member is designing and documenting the certification tests and Jentla is building the certification process. The code quality and security tests will be available in September and further enhancements in late October.

"Joomla and Jentla have deep roots in Queensland that demonstrate tangibly that Aussie products can achieve global uptake in a very short period of time," said Andrew Eddie. "This is an absolute milestone for Jentla, and sends a great message out to the market about the maturity and adoption of Joomla, and the Jentla suite of products."

"Open source products have really come of age, due in part to technology maturation, and in part to the economic downturn which accelerated the adoption of affordable open source products. These trends combined have fuelled the success of Jentla over the past year, we've doubled in size and won significant global deals," said Damian Hickey, CEO and Founder of Jentla. "Consequently, we launched the Jentla Software Certification program to award official merit to Joomla extension developers and create the level of quality assurance our larger customers expect from their web CMS."
