Change Management, Version Control & Baselines

Ensure complete transparency and data consistency in a fast-changing development environment. codeBeamer ALM automatically records a full change history on all items, and notifies you of suspected links to help recognize the impact of changes.

Use any VCS you like: Git, Subversion, Mercurial, CVS, Plastic SCM, Perforce VCS, and Bitbucket are integrated. Define integrator workflows and link requirements to source code commits. Save, browse, and compare baselines to “time travel” across versions.

Versatile Release Planning

Use the Release Planner to stay organized even with multiple deployments per day. Manage tasks, backlogs, sprints, releases, and milestones across projects. Monitor and manage resources, team commitment, and performance across releases and development streams. Visualize release data using Gantt charts, burndown charts, and instant release statistics. Track and manage releases in a central platform.

Safety, Quality, and Risk Management

Align all team members and maintain permission control throughout the lifecycle. Use guards and e-signatures, and enforce your custom workflows to reduce risks and to simplify compliance in regulated development. Automate processes to save time and resources.

Use dedicated risk management features to identify, analyze, and control hazards, and export comprehensive risk reports. Rely on codeBeamer ALM’s fully integrated Quality Assurance & Testing capabilities for continuous quality control as you develop.

Analytics, Monitoring & Reporting Dashboards

Access and share up-to-date information on the status of all development processes and streams. Set up custom analytics dashboards to visualize any and all lifecycle data, and simply export reports. See release activity updates all in one place, and track the status of incidents and change requests.

ChatOps for Unhindered Collaboration

Access lifecycle data, attach conversations to ALM work items, and execute actions in codeBeamer ALM right from the chat window. Use chat channels to streamline communication and chatbots to automate tasks. Use Slack or Mattermost to connect codeBeamer ALM to 100+ software tools integrated including Github, Google Drive, JIRA, Zendesk, Jenkins CI, and dozens more.
