The Ethics Committee for the Use of Animals (CEUA) is fundamental to ensuring compliance with ethical standards related to the use of animals in teaching and research. At the Federal University of Ceará (UFC), the CEUA, made up of researchers and administrative members, manages the submission and analysis of projects manually, using tools such as Google Drive and Gmail, which can lead to confusion in the organization of data. The development of a web application, called WebCeua, was started with the aim of optimizing CEUA’s procedures. Although the initial implementation was not completed, a new development phase was carried out, focusing on improving the quality of the code and finalizing the application’s functionalities. The main actions included refactoring the code to improve its structure and performance, creating a detailed system for recording back-end activities, implementing unit tests and deploying the application in a production environment. The results showed a significant improvement in the readability and efficiency of the code, thanks to the adoption of good Clean Code practices and SOLID principles. The modularization of complex functions and the elimination of duplications made it easier to add without compromising the stability of the system. The implementation of unit tests with the Jest framework and the Test-Driven Development (TDD) approach increased the system’s reliability, allowing for rapid identification and correction of errors. In addition, the telemetry implemented with the Winston tool made it possible to monitor system performance in detail. Hosting on the Render platform, integrated with the project’s repositories on GitHub, facilitated collaborative and efficient development management. In conclusion, the project not only modernized CEUA’s processes, but also enhanced transparency and efficiency in the evaluation of scientific projects, better preparing the system for future expansion.
