The Rational Team concert is a collaborative development tool built on scalable, scalable platforms that provides many features that integrate all the tasks of the lifecycle of the Software development project, including planning, iteration, process definition, change management, bug tracking, source control and source code management, Product building automation, and a variety of analysis reports.
1 Introduction to Rational Team concert
Rational Team Concert is built on the Jazz technology platform and supports several Agile development models. The Jazz technology platform makes software development more flexible, supports team members geographically, and provides scalable software development solutions from small teams to large enterprises. Rational Team Concert, sometimes referred to as RTC, has the following characteristics:
Collaboration and integration throughout the software development lifecycle
With Rational team concert, in software development, information exchange and information integration can be realized, and if a requirement changes, the members are automatically notified, and team members can understand the change in a variety of ways. The various views in the Rational team concert allow you to learn more about the information and follow the development progress and activities of the group.
Process Configuration and customization
Rational Team concert enables development teams to execute and customize processes easily and effectively, a process that is a collection of roles, practices, rules, and permissions.
Change Management
In Rational team concert, the main feature of Change management is to track and coordinate tasks with work items, including stories (story), defects (defect), schedule items (plan item), and Common Tasks (Task). Work items and workflows are flexible and customizable, and work items can be integrated and integrated with other change management systems.
Plan
The Rational Team concert provides tools to ensure program management capabilities, and for project teams, these tools can plan, track, and balance the workload of the project to reflect the actual state of the group. For Scrum, you can create and manage iteration plans.
Software Configuration Management
The Rational team concert's built-in source control management system is component-based and built on a Jazz platform that supports parallel and agile development, supports geographically distributed teams, and tightly integrates defect tracking, build, and process-centric automation.
Build automation
For development and testing teams, Rational Team concert provides automatic building of identification, build control, and build traceability. Team members can track the progress of the build, view the build warnings and results, submit build requests, and track the build process.
Dashboard and analysis reports
The Rational Team concert's reporting component shows the progress and project status of the project, makes it easy to analyze certain trends that may be hidden, and enables visual data and various analysis reports in the software development process to support effective decision-making.
Eclipse client, Visual Studio client and Web interface
These client interfaces provide a flexible, integrated development environment for developers.
