version control and workflow management.
Change Control
Track changes in software and documentation
Track who, when, why and what action was taken, and how it affected various
product components
Review requests by one or more project reviewers and opt to terminate the
request at an early stage, defer the request for later action, assign it for
formal study and/or accept it for further action for one or more release
streams.
Customize the number of test levels and formation of test teams depending on
the project size, rigor and the desired process
Link issues from multiple products
Version Management
Provides version control, permitting the retrieval of the current or any
prior version of files.
Supports simultaneous development of multiple products, each with multiple
release streams
Defines and extracts a complete or partial configuration of the product
files based on MR (Modification Requests) groups. These groups can be named and
stored for later retrieval of the corresponding configuration. When retrieving
a desired version, the system automatically includes the dependent MRs in the
group
Workflow Management
Provides work flow management by notifying appropriate project members of MR
events, and requesting their subsequent action – promoting an effective project
management process with clear responsibility, and prompt and timely actions
Incorporates an effective development process that balances the needs of
managers, developers, testers and integrators
Guides teams to consistent results using defined roles and workflow with
email notification
