AgileSCM v3.1 Released

The Clearvision browser-based Application Lifecycle Management tool.

AgileSCM: Subversion, Git and Mercurial Made Easy

What's new in AgileSCM v3.1?

• Significant enhancements to the Eclipse plugin.
• Now supports Git and Mercurial in addition to Subversion.
• Developers have greater control over AgileSCM though their Eclipse environment.
• Enhanced tool performance due to a number of bug fixes.
• Users can now define a home page for a project on a per project basis.

Rapid Boards are a new GreenHopper Labs Feature available to trial from release 5.6.2.

The Rapid Board (when enabled) takes up position alongside the other well known GreenHopper boards (Planning, Task, Chart, Release) and gives you a number of new ways to interact with your issues. The intention is that this will become the ‘New GreenHopper’ replacing the existing boards, and as such is very exciting development.

The underlying basis of the Rapid Board is the Rapid View which presents information based on Filters. A key feature here is that the filter can pull in Issues from multiple projects and you can have multiple rapid views all focussed on different projects.

This enables you to work across multiple projects form a single GreenHopper board, very useful if work across multiple agile projects at the same time.

In line with GreenHopper’s focus on usability, the rapid boards allow you to view and manipulate issues directly from the Rapid Board and to transition through the workflow by intelligent drag and drop. This uses highlighting to show valid transitions and where there are multiple statuses for a transition these are clearly displayed on the rapid board.

It also introduces Swim-lanes and interactive charts amongst other features. If you want to know more about Rapid Boards then can see the Atlassian documentation here: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/Using+the+Rapid+Board.

Bi-directional bridging between IBM Rational ClearQuest and Atlassian JIRA.

• JIRA multisite replication

"Our company uses JIRA but our outsourced provider uses IBM Rational ClearQuest. We want to exchange selected defect and enhancement records and ensure they are continually synchronised."

"We have two teams using separate instances of JIRA and need to replicate records between them, keeping the records in sync when they are updated."

Affinity is the Solution....

Atlassian Fisheye and Crucible 2.6 is now available.

The latest release of FishEye and Crucible gives you a new way to visualise your repository with Commit Graphs, a faster way to search your source and reviews and full support for your Enterprise Databases - Oracle & SQL Server.

Graphical representations of commits have been long been a part of many Version control systems and are a great help in understanding the origin of changes and branching strategies. This ability is now available in Fisheye with Commit Graphs featuring configurable ‘swim lanes’ with highlighting functionality to provide further context to your data.

Crucible has fast Code Review Search features now to enable you to quickly locate your reviews and comments. Html based emails to make the important information easier to see.

These are just some of the improvements in this release, which make it a compelling upgrade.
