Traceability first requires the ability to connect SDLC artifacts. When tools are loosely stitched together, artifacts are not connected and there is no traceability. Without traceability, your software development process is likely cursed. We all want our teams using tooling that is optimal for each lifecycle stage, but if the tooling isn’t tightly integrated to support...
To succeed in the software industry, you have to build, sell, and support your software better than others. Throw in a partner ecosystem and you have to ensure that all your partners have the same ability; at least to the extent that they can sell and support the product1. This increases the complexity of the...
What is continuous delivery? What are the implications, the opportunities; or rather, what is the opportunity cost of not being able to deliver continuously? These were some of the thought provoking questions raised by Gernot Brandl during the first few moments of his Tasktop Sync / Tosca Connect integration workshop titled “Keep the pace with...
In an increasingly Cloud-centric world, we need to build and support an ever-growing list of SaaS SDLC integrations. That includes tools like Atlassian Cloud (JIRA), Microsoft’s Visual Studio Team Services, and HPE’s new Octane ALM offering. Supporting Cloud-based integrations poses some interesting challenges: Cloud vendors typically choose a high cadence release cycle relative to on-premise...

In this short video, I will demonstrate how Tasktop Gateway can be used to bring Continuous Quality Assurance into your integration landscape by integrating SonarQube with Atlassian JIRA. SonarQube is a continuous code quality inspection tool. It scans your source code and...
Wouldn’t it be great if you could enable visibility across your entire lifecycle management tools and code review systems in your development environment? Wouldn’t it be useful to be able to trace a user story in JIRA back to the code reviews in Gerrit that are associated with it? This can be easily achieved using Tasktop...
Many organizations make the same mistakes when it comes to scaling Agile and DevOps and then attempt to rectify those mistakes by formulating a new strategy—only to miss the real reasons why the initiative failed. As someone who helps companies through software delivery transformations, I’ve seen my share of ineffective behaviors. What I find most...

So what about the IT teams who also play an integral role in software delivery? Luckily, Tasktop Gateway can help them as well. As an example, the short...
