Let's be honest, software delivery can be a beast. The latest OpenText™ Software Delivery Management release is here to tame it!
OpenText Software Delivery Management 25.1 isn't just an upgrade; it's a productivity power-up for user experience, DevOps efficiency, and, of course, delivering top-tier software. We've engineered this release to empower you with a solution that's not just efficient, but intelligent and genuinely user-friendly. This means:
- Blazing-fast software delivery: Because time is money (and buggy software is a money pit).
- Seamless team collaboration: Teamwork makes the dream work (and the software ship).
- Efficiency dialed up to 11: Streamlined workflows so you can ditch the busywork and focus on innovation.
- Software that exceeds expectations: Because good enough is the enemy of great.
What's the big deal?
Let's break down 10 key features that make this release kind of a big deal.
1. Introducing OpenText Software Delivery Management
OpenText ALM Octane is now called OpenText Software Delivery Management. It's the same powerhouse under the hood, just with a name that's clearer and more direct. No functionality changed; we just made it easier for customers to find what they need.
2. Proactive security monitoring
The new Security Status dashboard template gives you real-time visibility into potential threats. Identify and analyze vulnerabilities with interactive graphs and widgets, simplifying DevSecOps and proactively addressing security concerns.
3. Faster defect tracking
Link defects directly to test runs from the grid view, regardless of test type. This streamlined process saves you time and effort, letting you squash bugs with ruthless efficiency.
4. Powerful data insights
Robust filtering options let you slice and dice your data to extract the insights you need, quickly and easily. Make data-driven decisions with confidence.
5. Visual backlog management
A clear visual representation of your backlog makes prioritization, planning, and workflow management a breeze. Improve team communication and collaboration and watch your backlog vanish.
6. Simplified feature management
Copy or move features between workspaces within the same shared space. This flexibility allows you to adapt to changing priorities and keep your Agile development projects on track.
7. Automate GitHub Actions
Boost developer productivity by automating tests and pipelines on GitHub, streamlining your CI/CD processes and accelerating releases.
8. Seamless Jira connectivity
Integrate your CI/CD pipelines with the latest Jira Data Center versions (10.x) for smoother data flow and better synchronization between development and testing. Optimize your SDLC for maximum efficiency.
9. Enhanced BDD integration
Seamless integration with Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) frameworks promotes a shared understanding of requirements, reducing misunderstandings and improving team alignment.
10. Improved UX and performance
A more intuitive interface and enhanced performance mean you can focus on what matters: delivering great software.
