Managing Your Software Release Process

AccuRev’s software configuration management (SCM) solution is architected to solve the problems associated with today’s complex software development environments.  In fact, the complexity of even everyday software development has changed in the last several years.  It is commonplace today to have geographically distributed and outsourced teams, both Agile and waterfall processes coexisting, and an increasing number of parallel initiatives.

The AccuRev solution, with integrated issue-based workflow, process visibility with drag-and-drop automation, and artifact traceability, improves collaboration and management of multiple releases developed in parallel, allowing geographically distributed and offshore teams to remain agile and competitive.

"AccuRev Accelerates the Software Development Process by 30%."

Development Has Gotten More Complex:
AccuRev is the solution

"This sector has seen substantial activity during the past several years. A wave of new requirements has arisen because of increased attention to auditability, globally distributed development, agile practices and the progressive adoption of more-disciplined governance and management oversight. During the past several years, the open-source and commercial products that had been the standards of the sector since the mid-1990s began to decrease in popularity."

AccuRev is architected for today's complex software development challenges. Its innovative stream-based architecture helps teams to automate and enforce the development process. With AccuRev, development teams can implement their optimal process model from within the graphical interface with little or no scripting required. Since all software development processes involve the flow of code through various stages, AccuRev is a natural way to enforce and manage all code flow. The dynamic and graphical nature of the AccuRev StreamBrower enables instant visibility into the development process, and the stream hierarchy allows teams to model and implement multiple processes simultaneously (e.g., Agile, Scrum, XP, Waterfall, RUP, etc.). This enables collaboration and code sharing between teams, even when geographically distributed and/or utilizing differing development methodologies.

When combined with either the bundled AccuWork issue tracking system or the optional AccuWorkflow workflow engine, teams can establish the appropriate level of processes and measure the results via queries from AccuRev. When working with remote teams, the StreamBrowser provides comprehensive collaboration that allows geographically distributed team members to visualize the current state of their projects. Finally, the ability to move developers or entire teams to work on new projects or iterations via simple drag-and-drop operations enables managers to reallocate resources quickly, without incurring tool-mandated overhead.
